The Jewish concessions for our Christian Application of the Psalm, are Numerous and Marvellous. The Midrash Tillin particularly, quotes the, Sit thou at my Right hand, as belonging to the Messiah. And R. Obadiah says, The Psamist composed this Psalm of the Messiah. And from the first Verse, he places the Messiah, above the Angels of God.
