John Trapp Complete Commentary

Matthew 22:44

The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

Ver. 44. The Lord said unto my Lord] God the Father to God the Son; these two differ no otherwise than that the one is the Father, and not the Son, the other is the Son, and not the Father.

Sit thou on my right hand] As my fellow and co-equal, Zechariah 13:7; Philippians 2:6. And as Christ is at the right hand of his Father, so is the Church at the right hand of Christ, Psalms 45:9, which is a place both of greatest dignity and safety.
