Psalm 45
45:1 «To
the chief Musician upon
a Shoshannim,
for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of
b
loves.» My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have
made touching the king: my tongue [is] the pen of a ready writer.
(
a) This was a certain tune of an instrument.
(
b) Of that perfect love that ought to be between
the husband and the wife.
45:2 Thou art
c
fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God
hath blessed thee for ever.
(
c) Solomon's beauty and eloquence to win
favour with his people, and his power to overcome his enemies, is here
described.
45:4 And in thy majesty
d
ride prosperously because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness; and thy
right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
(
d) He alludes to them, who ride in chariots in
their triumphs, showing that the quiet state of a kingdom stands in truth,
meekness and justice, and not in worldly pomp and vanity.
45:6 Thy
e
throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom [is] a right
sceptre.
(
e) Under this figure of this kingdom of justice
is set forth the everlasting kingdom of Christ.
45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest
wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath
f
anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
(
f) Has established your kingdom as the figure of
Christ, which is the peace and joy of the Church.
45:8 All thy garments [smell] of myrrh, and aloes,
[and] cassia, out of the ivory palaces,
g
whereby they have made thee glad.
(
g) In which the people made you joyful to see
them give thanks and rejoice for you.
45:9 Kings' daughters [were] among thy honourable
women: upon thy right hand did stand the
h
queen in gold of Ophir.
(
h) Though he had many king's daughters among
his wives, yet he found Pharaoh's daughter best.
45:10 i
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own
people, and thy father's house;
(
i) Under the figure of Pharaoh's daughter, he
shows that the Church must cast off all carnal affections to obey Christ only.
45:12 And the
k
daughter of Tyre [shall be there] with a gift; [even] the rich among the people
shall intreat thy favour.
(
k) He signifies that many of those who are rich
will be benefactors to the Church, although they do not give perfect obedience
to the Gospel.
45:13 The king's daughter [is] all glorious
l
within: her clothing [is] of wrought gold.
(
l) There is nothing feigned or hypocritical but
she is glorious both within and without: and even though the Church has not
always had this outward glory, the fault is to be imputed only to their own
ingratitude.
45:16
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy
m
children, whom thou mayest make princes
n
in all the earth.
(
m) They will have greater graces than their
fathers.
(
n) He signifies the great compass of Christ's
kingdom, which will be sufficient to enrich all his members.
45:17 I will make thy
o
name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee
for ever and ever.
(
o) This must only be referred to Christ and not
to Solomon.
