As though [Greek or Hebrew], thou art my Son, did not more directly express the Filiation of the Person spoken of, than [Greek or Hebrew] would do. [Greek or Hebrew] is more emphatically expressive of a natural Relation, then [Greek or Hebrew], my Son, than a Son to me; See Gen. 27.21. And in this Psalm we have a good part of the Creed of the Ancient Church concerning the Messiah, as may be learned from the Exposition of it.

§ 20 Psal. 18. v. 32. Targum; Because of the Miracles and Redemption which thou shalt work for thy Messiah. I mention this place only, that it may appear, that the Jews had a Tradition amongst them, that David in this Psalm bare the person of the Messiah, and was considered as his Type. And hence our Apostle applies those words, v. 3. [Greek or Hebrew], I will put my trust in him, unto the Lord Jesus Christ, Heb. 2. v. 13. See also Psalm 20. v. 7.
