Anchor Text: Psalm 110 — The Right-Hand Session and the Melchizedekian Priest

Significance: At his trial (Luke 22:66-71), Jesus combines Psalm 110:1 and Daniel 7:13 in his self-identification as Messiah and Son of Man. When asked if he is the Christ, Jesus responds "from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God" (22:69). This merges the Davidic king enthroned at God's right (Ps 110:1) with Daniel's heavenly Son of Man figure (Dan 7:13), claiming both messianic and divine authority. The Sanhedrin recognizes the claim and charges him with blasphemy.
