Matt Larson has a series going which I thought might be of interest to you. This particular post is of interest to me, as I am considering Psalm 2 and Revelation and the possible connection there. (Don’t tell me if you already have the answer.) Anyway, he is taking five views (Historical-Critical, Canonical-OT Theology, Intertestamental, Apostolic, and Christian) and examining various passages according to them.
On thing that we should remember is that Christian use is different in many ways than early Apostolic use. The Apostles were writers, interpreting the Christ-event by their previous traditions, while later Christian use allowed for interpretation by the Apostles and Church (developing) tradition.
Anyway, it is a good series:

Thanks for the plug! I’d love to hear your thoughts on Ps 2 and Revelation
Thanks, Matt!
It sort of springs from here – http://thechurchofjesuschrist.us/2010/03/revelation-kings-of-the-earth-the-nations-and-the-city-of-god/
If Psalm 2 is an enthronement psalm (and I have no reason not to believe that), and we can step away from Revelation as an eschatological mystery of LeHaye proportions, we can see that Chapters 4-22 is an enthronement tale of Christ. It fleshes out, if you well, Psalm 2.
Just a note though, I’ve only begun to think about it, so I might be a bit off – usually am.
