Mark 12:35-37

The Messiah: David’s Son and Lord

12:35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, he said, “How is it that the experts in the law say that the Christ is David’s son? 12:36 David himself, by the Holy Spirit, said,

‘The Lord said to my lord,

“Sit at my right hand,

until I put your enemies under your feet.”’

12:37 If David himself calls him ‘Lord,’ how can he be his son?” And the large crowd was listening to him with delight.
