The Lord Will

Psalm 110:5

β€œThe Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 110

Meaning

This is severe judgment imagery within ancient royal poetry. It entrusts decisive judgment to God rather than authorizing readers to attack rulers or opponents.

Judgment and final victory

The closing movement depicts divine judgment, forward movement, and final exaltation.

Read carefully

The verse does not delegate divine judgment to private actors or movements.

Reflection

Pursue lawful accountability without dehumanization or violence.
