The Messianic Content of Psalm 16


For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay. (Ps. 16:10)

In Peter's sermon on the Day of Pentecost, he explains that the prophet David prophesied concerning Christ in Psalm 16:10: 

 2:30 And so, because he was a prophet and knew that GOD HAD SWORN TO HIM WITH AN OATH TO SEAT one OF HIS DESCENDANTS ON HIS THRONE, 2:31 he looked ahead and spoke of the resurrection of the Christ, that HE WAS NEITHER ABANDONED TO HADES, NOR DID His flesh SUFFER DECAY. 2:32 This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are all witnesses. (Acts 2:30-32)
