3. I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant. This was the ground of the psalmist’s confidence in God’s mercy and
truth (2 Samuel 7). David was the Lord’s elect, and with him a covenant was
made which ran along in his seed until it received fulfillment in “the Son of David.” In
Christ there is a covenant established with all the Lord’s chosen, and
they are by grace led to be the Lord’s “servants,” and then are ordained
kings and priests by Christ Jesus.
