Please read the following scriptures.
Luke 20:41-44(opens in a new tab)
In Luke 20:41-44, Jesus quotes Psalm 110:1 to declare the truth concerning His deity. The religious leaders refused to call Jesus, Lord. With that in mind, Jesus asked them why David referred to his descendent as both Son and Lord. Usually the younger calls the older “sir” and not vice versa. But in this case Jesus said it is the father who called the younger, Lord. The point is that David referred to his Great Descendent as not only David’s Son, but also Lord, acknowledging David’s need for submission to the Lord Jesus as God and Messiah. Jesus based his conclusion on the object of the sentence, “Lord.”
Jesus clearly demonstrates the importance of carefully reading the grammar of a passage. The principle of grammar teaches you that meaning is expressed according to the relationships of words in a sentence.
