Acts 2:34-35

2:34 For David did not ascend into heaven, but he himself says,

‘The Lord said to my lord,

“Sit 1  at my right hand

2:35 until I make your enemies a footstool 2  for your feet.”’ 3 

1 sn Sit at my right hand. The word “sit” alludes back to the promise of “seating one on his throne” in v. 30.

2 sn The metaphor make your enemies a footstool portrays the complete subjugation of the enemies.

3 sn A quotation from Ps 110:1, one of the most often-cited OT passages in the NT, pointing to the exaltation of Jesus.
