David therefore himself calls him Lord; and how is he then his son?
And the common people heard him gladly.
All Commentaries on Mark 12:37 Go To Mark 12
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
He spoke in the hearing of those whom he wished profitably to instruct on his authority, and to turn away from the teaching of the scribes, whose knowledge of Christ amounted then only to this, that he was made of the seed of David according to the flesh. They did not understand that he was God, and on that ground also the Lord even of David.
