King David's prophecies in the New Covenant

"For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the L-rd always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance. Men and brethern, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that G-d had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Messiah to sit on his throne; He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Messiah, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. This Yeshua hath G-d raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of G-d exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear, For David is not ascended into the heavens but he saith himself, The L-RD said unto my L-rd, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thy foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that G-d hath made that same Jesus(Yeshua), whom ye have crucified (1), both L-rd and Messiah." Acts 2:25-36. King David wrote in Psalm 16: 8-11 this prophecy that was fulfilled in Yeshua's crucifixion death, burial and bodily resurrection. You can recognize the Messiah from the scriptures.

(1) ( this shows the Jews as well as the Gentiles were responsible for the death of Yeshua and both are under condemnation. Matthew 20:18 and 19 shows the Gentiles were the ones that mocked, scourged and crucified Yeshua)
