[Psalms 44](/study/psalms/44) [Psalms 46](/study/psalms/46) ## Commentary To verse 1 **Shoshannim** Shoshannim, "lilies," and so, the spring; the Shoshannim Psalms were probably connected with the Passover season, and hence reminders of redemption out of bondage, and of the origins of Israel. **king** This great psalm of the King, with Psalms 46.-47., obviously looks forward to the advent in glory. The reference in [Hebrews 1:8](/kjv/hebrews/1/8); [Hebrews 1:9](/kjv/hebrews/1/9) is not so much to the anointing as an event [Matthew 3:16](/kjv/matthew/3/16); [Matthew 3:17](/kjv/matthew/3/17) as to the permanent state of the King. Cf. [Isaiah 11:1](/kjv/isaiah/11/1); [Isaiah 11:2](/kjv/isaiah/11/2). The divisions are: (1) The supreme beauty of the King ([Psalms 45:1](/kjv/psalms/45/1); [Psalms 45:2](/kjv/psalms/45/2)); (2) the coming of the King in glory [Psalms 45:3-5](/kjv/psalms/45/3-5); [Revelation 19:11-21](/kjv/revelation/19/11-21). (3) the deity of the King and character of His reign [Psalms 45:6](/kjv/psalms/45/6); [Psalms 45:7](/kjv/psalms/45/7); [Hebrews 1:8](/kjv/hebrews/1/8); [Hebrews 1:9](/kjv/hebrews/1/9); [Isaiah 11:1-5](/kjv/isaiah/11/1-5). (4) as associated with Him in earthly rule, the queen is presented, [Psalms 45:9-13](/kjv/psalms/45/9-13) and in that relation the King is not called Elohim *(See Scofield "*[Psalms 45:9-19](/kjv/psalms/45/9-19).45.13- :*")* as in verse 6, but Adonai, the husband name of Deity See Scofield "[Psalms 45:9-19](/kjv/psalms/45/9-19).45.13- :". (5) the virgin companions of the queen, who would seem to be the Jewish remnant. *(See Scofield "*[Psalms 45:9-19](/kjv/psalms/45/9-19).45.13- :*")* . [Revelation 14:1-4](/kjv/revelation/14/1-4) are next seen [Psalms 45:14](/kjv/psalms/45/14); [Psalms 45:15](/kjv/psalms/45/15) and (6) the Psalm closes with a reference to the earthly fame of the King. See Psalm 68., next in order of the Messianic Psalms. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45","name":"Psalms 45 - Study King James Bible with scofields reference notes","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"Read Psalms 45 with scofields reference notes commentary. 1 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. 2 Thou art fairer","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45"]}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","name":"Home"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","name":"Study Bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes","name":"scofields reference notes"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms","name":"Psalms"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/scofields-reference-notes/psalms/45","name":"45"}}]},{"@type":["Person","Organization"],"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","width":512,"height":512},"logo":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo"},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/RBiblebeliever","https://www.facebook.com/RBibleBelievers"]}]} ```
