How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord? For one ought, he says, to name fathers lords of their sons, because they have the sons under their authority; yet David, on the contrary, calls the one from his own seed his Lord (Matthew 22:43–46) (Psalm 110:1).

Greek

Πῶς οὖν ∆αυὶδ ἐν πνεύματι κύριον αὐτὸν καλεῖ; δέον γάρ φησιν τοὺς πατέρας τῶν υἱῶν κυρίους ὀνομάζεσθαι διὰ τὸ ἔχειν αὐτοὺς ὑπὸ τὴν αὐτῶν ἐξουσίαν τοὺς υἱούς, τοὐναντίον ὁ ∆αυὶδ τὸν ἐκ σπέρ ματος ἑαυτοῦ κύριον αὐτοῦ καλεῖ.
