Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Psalms 110:2

_ _ the rod of thy strength — the rod of correction (Isaiah 9:4; Isaiah 10:15; Jeremiah 48:12), by which Thy strength will be known. This is His Word of truth (Isaiah 2:3; Isaiah 11:4), converting some and confounding others (compare 2 Thessalonians 2:8).

_ _ out of Zion — or, the Church, in which God dwells by His Spirit, as once by a visible symbol in the tabernacle on Zion (compare Psalms 2:6).

_ _ rule thou, etc. — over enemies now conquered.

_ _ in the midst — once set upon, as by ferocious beasts (Psalms 22:16), now humbly, though reluctantly, confessed as Lord (Philippians 2:10, Philippians 2:11).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Psalms 110:1-4.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Psalms 110:2

The rod — Thy strong or powerful rod, and the rod is put for his scepter, or kingly power: but as the kingdom of Christ is not carnal, but spiritual, so this scepter is nothing else but his word. Zion — From Jerusalem.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Psalms 110:2

The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of (b) Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

(b) And then it will stretch through all the world: and this power chiefly stands in the preaching of his word.
