Luke 20:41-44 Part 1 of 2

Then Jesus presented them with a question. "Why is it," he asked, "that the Messiah is said to be the son of David? For David himself wrote in the book of Psalms: 'The LORD said to my Lord, sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.' Since David called the Messiah 'Lord,' how can the Messiah be his son?"

Then Jesus presented them with a question. "Why is it," he asked, "that the Messiah is said to be the son of David?"

Matthew 1:1  This is the record of the ancestors of Jesus the Messiah, a descendant of David and of Abraham: (see verses 1-17)

Matthew 22:41-42  Then, surrounded by the Pharisees, Jesus asked them a question: "What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?" They replied "He is the son of David."

"For David himself wrote in the book of Psalms: 'The LORD said to my Lord, sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.' "

Acts 2:34-36  "For David himself never ascended into heaven, yet he said, 'The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.' So let everyone in Israel know for certain that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, to be both Lord and Messiah!" (see all chapter 2)
