Verse 6 king The second Psalm gives the order of the establishment of the kingdom.

The inspired interpretation of this is in Acts 4:25-28 which asserts its fulfilment in the crucifixion of Christ. (2) The derision of Jehovah Psalms 2:4 that men should suppose it possible to set aside His covenant 2 Samuel 7:8-17 and oath Psalms 89:34-37. (3) The vexation Psalms 2:5 fulfilled, first in the destruction of Jerusalem, A.D. 70; and in the final dispersion of the Jews at that time; and to be fulfilled more completely in the tribulation Matthew 24:29 which immediately precedes the return of the King.
