Gill's Notes on the Bible
For he testifieth,.... That is, either David, the penman of the psalm, or rather the Holy Ghost, the enditer of it, or God in the Scripture, in Psalms 110:4 of this form of citing Scripture,
Psalms 110:4- :.
thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec; see Hebrews 5:6.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For he testifieth - “That this is the true account of it is proved by the testimony of God himself, that he was to be a priest for ever;” see the note on Hebrews 5:6.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 17. For he testifieth — That is, either the Scripture, in the place so often quoted, or God by that Scripture.
Thou art a priest for ever — This is the proof that he was not appointed according to the carnal commandment, but according to the power of an endless life, because he is a priest for ever; i.e. one that never dies, and is never disabled from performing the important functions of his office; for if he be a priest for ever, he ever lives.
