§ 22 Psal. 45. The Targum hath given an especial Title unto this Psalm, [Greek or Hebrew], A Psalm of Praise for the Elders (Assessors) of the Sanhedrin of Moses: intimating that something eminent is contained in it. And those words, v. 2. Thou art fairer than the children of men; are rendered in it [Greek or Hebrew]; Thy Beauty O King Messiah is more excellent than that of the Sons of Men; And Grace, in the next words is interpreted by [Greek or Hebrew] the Spirit of Prophecy; not amiss; And those words v. 7. Thy Throne O God is for ever and ever, are retained with little alteration. [Greek or Hebrew], The Seat of thy Glory O God, remaineth for ever and ever: applying it unto the Messiah; which illustrious Testimony given unto his Deity, shall be vindicated in our Exposition of the words, as cited by our Apostle; Heb. 8. Kimchi expounds this Psalm of the Messiah. Aben Ezra says, it is spoken of David, [Greek or Hebrew] or concerning Messiah his Son, who is likewise called David; as David my Servant shall be their Prince for ever. Ezek. 37. v. 25.
