This group is for users of the Concordia Self Study Bible. We will discuss notes and content of that study bible and will especially have Community Notes that discuss the changes from NIV Study Bible in the "daggered notes"
Follow- Ps 110NIVSB=CSSB until "... his son Solomon," going on with "that he called him 'my Lord' (v. 1) in view of his new status, which placed him above the aged David, and that in so doing he spoke a word that had far larger meaning than he knew. This would seem to be in more accord with what we know of David from Samuel, Kings and Chronicles. For this psalm's setting in the Psalter see introduction to Ps 101-110. The psalm falls into two precisely balanced halves (vv. 1-3, 4-7) Each of the two brief oracles (vv. 1, 4) is followed by thematically and structurally similar elaboration: as v. 4 is to v. 1, so v. 5 is to v. 2 and vv. 6-7 are to v. 3 (a poetic couplet)."
- Ps 118NIVSB=CSSB until "... Last Supper (see Mt 26:30)." but goes on with "Following a liturgical call to praise (vv. 1–4), the king offers a song of thanksgiving for deliverance and victory in battle (vv. 5–21). A three-verse stanza (vv. 5-7) summarizing the main theme is followed by two seven-verse composite stanzas (vv. 8-14, 15-21) of elaboration, each closing with the refrain: 'has/have become my salvation.' In vv. 22–27 the people rejoice over what the Lord has done. Thereafter, the king speaks his final word of praise (v. 28), and a liturgical conclusion (v. 29) repeats the opening call to praise, thus framing the whole. In the two seven-verse stanzas (vv. 8-14, 15-21) the divine name Yahweh (or its shortened foorm, Yah) occurs seven times. In the six-verse stanza (vv. 22-27) it occurs seven times, and in the remaining verses (1-7, 28-29) it occurs seven times."
- Most possibly the CSSB editors only added "It was Luther's favorite psalm, especially because of v. 17." and the other changes are NIVSB updates from the version used by CSSB.

Most likely a reference to the king (whose deliverance and victory are being celebrated), who had been looked on with disdain by the kings invading his realm—the builders of worldly empires.

- CSSB insists that Jesus not only applied the verse to himself, but that this application had been the prophetic intent of the verse all the time.
