Significance

Most frequently cited OT text in NT. Establishes Christ's exaltation and future subjugation of enemies. Concludes the seven-quotation chain demonstrating the Son's superiority. Fundamental to Hebrews' argument about Christ's present session (completed work) and future victory (awaiting final subjugation). No angel has ever been invited to sit at God's right hand—this privilege belongs exclusively to the Son.

Hermeneutical Notes

Prosopological Shift: Auditor (David's anticipated messianic Lord → the enthroned Son explicitly identified). The Father's invitation to sit at his right hand, originally directed to David's prophesied "Lord," is reread as the Father's address to the now-arrived Son.
