In Hebrew there are variations of the root word adon. They are not all used the same ways and in the same context. The variant we are talking about right now is ’ă·ḏō·nî because that's the one that's used in Psalm 110:1. Other variants may mean different things, but the one that matters in regards to Jesus not being God right now is adoni. So I am actually trying to help you. As I previously pointed out, this is beyond dispute, and I would even go so far as to ring the bell and call this check mate. Adoni is used 100% of the time to refer to human masters/lords in the Bible. Let's look at some of the examples where this is the truth.
Below, the word used to refer to Jesus as the Lord at the right hand of YHWH in Psalm 110:1 is used 100% exlcusively in regards to those who are not God in the Bible.
Gen. 24:36My master’s wife Sarah has borne him a son in her old age, and my master has given him everything he owns.Gen. 32:4He instructed them, “You are to say to my master Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban and have remained there until now.Gen. 44:9If any of your servants is found to have it, he must die, and the rest will become slaves of my lord.”1 Sam. 24:6So he said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed. May I never lift my hand against him, since he is the LORD’s anointed.”1 Sam. 25:27Now let this gift your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow you2 Sam. 4:8They brought the head of Ish-bosheth to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life. Today the LORD has granted vengeance to my lord the king against Saul and his offspring.”2 Sam. 19:28For all the house of my grandfather deserves death from my lord the king, yet you have set your servant among those who eat at your table. What further right, then, do I have to keep appealing to the king?”1 Kings 1:2So his servants said to him, “Let us search for a young virgin for our lord the king, to attend to him and care for him and lie by his side to keep him warm.”1 Kings 18:13Was it not reported to my lord what I did when Jezebel slaughtered the prophets of the LORD? I hid a hundred prophets of the LORD, fifty men per cave, and I provided them with food and water.1 Kings 20:9So Ahab answered the messengers of Ben-hadad, “Tell my lord the king, ‘All that you demanded of your servant the first time I will do, but this thing I cannot do.’ ”1 Chronicles 21:3But Joab replied, “May the LORD multiply His troops a hundred times over. My lord the king, are they not all servants of my lord? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”Psalm 110:1The LORD said to my Lord:“Sit at My right handuntil I make Your enemiesa footstool for Your feet.”
Let me disprove .
From your own list here, you quote 1 Kings 1:2, where the Hebrew is "la·ḏō·nî"
Psalm 8:1, "O LORD (yehôvâh), our Lord (’ă·ḏō·nê·nū), how Majestic is Your Name in all the earth! You have set your Glory above the heavens”. the same in verse 9, "
And, in Psalm 147:5, "Great is our Lord (’ă·ḏō·nê·nū) and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite"
the EXACT SAME root Hebrew word as 1 Kings!
I have shown MANY examples where the ROOT Hebrew "’āḏōn", is used for Almighty God. It matters ZERO, if the FORM reads, "MY Lord", "THE Lord", YOUR Lord", "OUR Lord". What does matter, is the ROOT Hebrew! This is what you FAIL to grasp, because you don't know Hebrew!
