Psalm 110 is the most cited Scripture by the authors of the New Testament. As such it forms the core passage for how the Lord Jesus and his apostles interpreted Scripture.
In Luke 20:41, the Lord Jesus pointed out that David's Son is also David's Lord, citing Psalm 110:1.
He is also a priest whose priesthood is superior to the Levitical priesthood, as Psalm 110:4 teaches. Abraham was blessed by Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18-20). And Levi paid tithes to Melchizedek through his ancestor Abraham, and so therefore the priesthood of Melchizedek absorbs the Levitical priesthood in itself as a superior priesthood (Genesis 14:20; Hebrews 7:4-10).
Peter quotes Psalm 110:1 in Acts 2:29-35, proclaiming that Jesus is now sitting on David's throne at the right hand of the Father in heaven, because the true Zion is at the right hand of the Father (Hebrews 1:3, 13; 8:1; 10:12; 12:2).
Paul says the same thing in Galatians 4:26, and one day the heavenly Jerusalem will come down on earth (Hebrews 12:22-24; Revelation 21:2, 10-11).
1 Corinthians 15:24-26 quotes from Psalm 110 and teaches that Christ's reign climaxes in the death of death.
