66And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,
67If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
68and if I ask [you], ye will not answer.
69But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

“Hereafter shall the son of man, etc.] Meaning himself, who was truly man, and then in a low and mean form, and thought by the Jews to be a mere man; though this character was known by them to belong to the Messiah, especially what follows; as that he should sit on the right hand of the power of God: as he did after his resurrection, and ascension, and which was manifest by the destruction of their nation, city, and temple; (see Gill on “<402764>Matthew 27:64”).”

“22:69 Jesus referred to Ps 110:1 (cp. Luke 20:42-43). Though he would be crucified, Jesus would be vindicated through his resurrection and exalted to God’s right hand (see Acts 2:33-36; cp. Dan 7:13-14). Furthermore, he would be seated in the place of power as Judge. Jesus would soon sit in judgment over those who were trying him.”
