At God's Right Hand

At God's Right Hand


‎The brief hundred and tenth psalm stands prominent among the Messianic prophecies. It opens with the promise that those who oppose the king who is to come shall be trodden under his feet. “The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.” We are promised that this rule of the Messiah shall be accepted everywhere, but upon the evil there shall come a terrible judgment. “The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
‎“The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
‎“He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.”
‎Thus the coming is foreshadowed of that last “day of judgment,” when Christ shall dismiss all evil, all malignant influences, from his kingdom forever.

Sledges were fitted with flint teeth to dehusk the grain more quickly. Other workers would turn the grain over so that it would be evenly threshed by the sledge.
