Commentaries on Psalms 45:14
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 14She shall be brought unto the king - When an Asiatic princess is brought to her spouse, she is inclosed in a palakee, and no part of her person is visible. She is attended by her principal friends and companions, who follow the palakee, and the ceremony is accompanied with great rejoicing; and thus they enter into the palace of the king.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 10-17Verses 10-17 If we desire to share these blessings, we must hearken to Christ's word. We must forget our carnal and sinful attachments and pursuits.

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 14-1514-15. The progress of the procession is described; according to the usual custom the bride and attendants are conducted to the palace. Some for the words-- in raiment of needlework--propose another rendering, "on variegated (or embroidered) cloths"--that is, in the manner of the East, richly wrought tapestry was spread on the ground, on which the bride walked. As the dress had been already mentioned, this seems to be a probable translation.Read the comment
