Psalm 2 - You are my son
Messianic elements in the Psalms can be tricky to handle.
Some psalms obviously (to our eyes) foreshadow aspects of the earthly life and ministry of Jesus. Psalm 22 and 23 contain perhaps the most prominent examples, which we enjoyed in the first season of Sabbath School from Home. Psalm 2 makes mention of "submitting to God's royal son", but there's some cultural and linguistic context worth exploring. We ponder the challenges of prophecy, inspiration, and messianic interpretations.
