The Psalm of Messiah the Prince;

And we bring you the Good News, the promise made the

fathers,that

Elohim has filled this for us, their children, having raised up יהושע, as

it has also been written in the second Psalm, ‘You are My Son, today I

have brought You forth.’ “And that He raised Him out of the dead, no

more to return to corruption, He has said thus, ‘I shall give you the trustworthy kindnesses of Dawiḏ.’

To place this Psalm in its proper setting, we must look ahead to the close of the Great Tribulation, immediately prior to the glorious Return and reign of our Yahushua Ha Maschach. At this time a vast federation of rulers and nations will unite in a passionate determination to prevent Messiah from taking the reigns of world government.

Why do the gentiles rage And the peoples meditate emptiness?

The sovereigns of the earth take their stand,

 And the rulers take counsel together,

Against יהוה and against His Messiah, and say,

“Let us tear apart Their bonds,

 And throw away Their ropes from us.”

He who is sitting in the heavens laughs,

 יהוה mocks at them.

Then He speaks to them in His wrath,

 And troubles them in His rage, saying,

“But I, I have set My Sovereign on Tsiyon,

My set-apart mountain.”“I inscribe for a law:

 יהוה has said to Me,

‘You are My Son,

 Today I have brought You forth.

‘Ask of Me, and I make the gentiles Your inheritance,

 And the ends of the earth Your possession.

‘Break them with a rod of iron,

 Dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

 And now, be wise, O sovereigns;

 Be instructed, you rulers of the earth.

Serve יהוה with fear,

And rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest He be enraged,

 And you perish in the way,

 For soon His wrath is to be kindled.

 Blessed are all those taking refuge in Him.

Let us read it with the eye of faith,

 beholding, as in a glass, the final triumph of our

Yahushua Ha maschiach

 over all his enemies.

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision

They have hatched adders’ eggs and they weave the spider’s web.

 Whoever eats their eggs dies,

 and when one is broken an adder is hatched.

Their webs do not become garments,

 nordo they cover themselves with their works.

Their works are works of wickedness,

and a deed of violence is in their hands.

o are the paths of all who forget Ěl,

and the expectancy of a defiled one does perish,

whose refuge is cut off,

and whose trust is a spider’s web.

For not knowing the righteousness of Elohim, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of Elohim For to which of the messengers did He ever say, “You are My Son, today I have brought You forth”? And again, “I shall be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son

We are here told who would appear as adversaries to Yahushua ha Maschiach. As this world is the kingdom of Satan, unconverted men, of every rank, party, and character, are stirred up by him to oppose the cause of YAHWEH. But the rulers of the earth generally have been most active. The truths and precepts of Messianites are against ambitious projects and worldly lusts. We are told what they aim at in this opposition. They would break asunder the bands of conscience, and the cords of YAHWEH's commandments; they will not receive, but cast them away as far as they can
