psalms 110:2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

psalms 110:2 The LORD will stretch forth Thy strong scepter from Zion, [saying], "Rule in the midst of Thine enemies."

2. the rod of thy strength--the rod of correction (Isa 9:4; 10:15; Jer 48:12), by which Thy strength will be known. This is His Word of truth (Isa 2:3; 11:4), converting some and confounding others (compare 2Th 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 Ps 2:6).
rule thou, &c.--over enemies now conquered.
in the midst--once set upon, as by ferocious beasts (Ps 22:16), now humbly, though reluctantly, confessed as Lord (Php 2:10, 11).

psalms 110:2 The LORD will stretch forth Thy strong scepter from Zion, [saying], "Rule in the midst of Thine enemies."
