Psalm 45
1. The majesty and grace of Christ's kingdom
10. The duty of the church, and the benefits thereof














(14) In raiment of needlework.--This is now more generally understood of rich tapestry carpets spread for the procession. (Comp. 'sch. Agam. 908-910.)

Verse 14. - She shall be brought unto the King in raiment of needlework; i.e. in garments richly embroidered. Such were known to the Hebrews from the time of the Exodus (Exodus 28:4, 39), and were worn by princeases in David's day (2 Samuel 13:18). Brides were commonly "led" into the presence of the bridegroom. The virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee (comp. ver. 9). A virgin train follows the bride as she is led to the palace of the bridegroom, for a royal bride necessarily had her attendants. These symbolize the Gentile converts that should attach themselves to the original Church, and follow that Church into Christ's presence.
