[1] {O give thanks unto the Lord}
The Messianic Psalms: Summary. That the Psalms contain a testimony to
Christ our Lord Himself affirmed
# Lu 24:44
and the N.T. quotations from the Psalter point unerringly to those
Psalms which have the Messianic character. A close spiritual and
prophetic character as surely identifies others. Christ is seen
in the Psalms (1) in two general character, as suffering (e.g. Psa. 22),
and as entering into His kingdom glory (e.g. psa 2.; 24. Cf
# Lu 24:25-27
(2) Christ is seen in His person (a) as Son of God
# Ps 2:7
and very God
# Ps 45:6,7 102:25 110:1
(b) as Son of man
# Ps 8:4-6
(c) as Son of David
# Ps 89:3,4,27,29
(3) Christ is seen in His offices (a) as Prophet
# Ps 22:23,25 40:9,10
(b) as Priest
# Ps 110:4
and (c) as King (e.g. Psa 2., 24.)
(4) Christ is seen in His varied work. As Priest He offers Himself in
sacrifice
# Ps 22:1-31 40:6 Heb 10:5-12
and, in resurrection, as the Priest-Shepherd, ever living to make
intercession
# Ps 23:1-6 Heb 7:21-25 13:20
As Prophet He proclaims the name of Jehovah as Father
# Ps 22:22 Joh 20:17
As King He fulfils the Davidic Covenant
# Ps 89:1-52
and restores alike the dominion of man over creation
# Ps 8:4-6 Ro 8:17-21
and of the Father over all.
# 1Co 15:25-28
(5) The Messianic Psalms give, also, the inner thoughts, the exercises of
soul, of Christ in His earthly experiences. (See, e.g.,
# Ps 16:8-11 22:1-21 40:1-17
