Psalms 45:17 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I will make thy name to be remembered, &c. As he began the Psalm with the celebration of the King's praises, so now he ends with it, and adds this important circumstance, that this nuptial song should not only serve for the present solemnity, but should be remembered and sung in all successive generations: which plainly shows that it was not composed upon such a slight and transitory occasion as that of Solomon's marriage, which was soon forgotten, and which, indeed, the Israelites had little cause to remember with any satisfaction; but upon that great, and glorious, and everlasting marriage between Christ and his church, in which it is most properly and literally verified.
