(Title) To the chief
|
|
"Or, rather, ""To the chief musician upon the hexachords, a didactic ode for the sons of Korah, and a song of loves."" Shoshannim most probably denotes hexachords, or six-stringed instruments, from shesh, ""six:"" hence the Persian shasta, a six-stringed lute. This Psalm is supposed by some to be an epithalamium, or nuptial song, on the marriage of Solomon with Pharaoh's daughter; but with what propriety could Solomon be described as fairer than the children of men, a mighty warrior, a victorious conqueror, and a prince whose throne is for ever and ever? A greater than Solomon is here; and the person described is no other than the Messiah, as is acknowledged by many Jewish writers. The Targum on Psa 45:3 says, ""Thy beauty, malka meshecha, O King Messiah, is greater than the children of men;"" and the Apostle expressly quotes it as such Hbr 1:8, 9. It was probably written by David after Nathan's prophetic address 1Ch 17:27." |
