Prophecy

Psalm 2 was most likely used to celebrate the coronation of a new king, but it was also sung in hopeful expectation of the Messiah king’s reign. This is why Psalm 2 is the most quoted Psalm in the New Testament. It points to Jesus. When it comes to prophecies, why did God have to be so specific? Because if he wasn’t specific, then we wouldn’t know who to look for. The last thing that God wants is for us to identify the wrong person as the King of the kingdom of God.
