New Testament
Matthew 28:18
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."
Why This Matters
The psalmist celebrated a king rejoicing in God-given victories. Jesus declared that all authority — in heaven and on earth — has been given to Him. The ultimate royal victory is Christ's.
