{The Christ} (	ou Christou). The Messiah, of course, not
Christ as a proper name of Jesus. Jesus here assumes that  Ps
110  refers to the Messiah. By his pungent question about the
Messiah as David's son and Lord he really touches the problem of
his Person (his Deity and his Humanity). Probably the Pharisees
had never faced that problem before. They were unable to answer.
