SEV Biblia, Chapter 89:27

Yo también le pondré por primogénito, alto sobre los reyes de la tierra.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 88:27

Verse 27. I will make him my first-born ] I will deal with him as a father by his first-born son, to whom a double portion of possessions and honours belong. First-born. is not always to be understood literally in Scripture. It often signifies simply a well-beloved, or best-beloved son; one preferred to all the rest, and distinguished by some eminent prerogative. Thus God calls Israel his son, his first-born, Exod. iv. 22. See also Ecclus. xxxvi. 12. And even Ephraim is called God's first-born, Jer. xxxi. 9. In the same sense it is sometimes applied even to Jesus Christ himself, to signify his supereminent dignity; not the eternal Sonship of his Divine nature, as inveterate prejudice and superficial thinking have supposed.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 19-37 - The Lord anointed David with the holy oil, not only as an emblem of the graces and gifts he received, but as a type of Christ, the King Priest and Prophet, anointed with the Holy Ghost without measure. David afte his anointing, was persecuted, but none could gain advantage agains him. Yet all this was a faint shadow of the Redeemer's sufferings deliverance, glory, and authority, in whom alone these predictions an promises are fully brought to pass. He is the mighty God. This is the Redeemer appointed for us, who alone is able to complete the work of our salvation. Let us seek an interest in these blessings, by the witness of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. As the Lord corrected the posterity of David for their transgressions, so his people shall be corrected for their sins. Yet it is but a rod, not a sword; it is to correct, not to destroy. It is a rod in the hand of God, who is wise and knows what he does; gracious, and will do what is best. It is a ro which they shall never feel, but when there is need. As the sun an moon remain in heaven, whatever changes there seem to be in them, an again appear in due season; so the covenant of grace made in Christ whatever alteration seems to come to it, should not be questioned.
