SEV Biblia, Chapter 45:8
Mirra, áloe, y casia exhalan todos tus vestidos; desde palacios de marfil te alegraron.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 44:8
Verse 8. All thy garments smell of myrrh ] The Asiatics are very partial to perfumes; every thing with them is perfumed, and especially their garments. And the ivory palaces mentioned are the wardrobes inlaid with ivory, in which their numerous changes of raiment were deposited. Myrrh and aloes are well known; cassia is probably the bark or wood of the cinnamon tree. These with frankincense, galbanum and other odouriferous drugs, were and are frequently used in the perfumes of the Asiatic nations. Whereby they have made thee glad. ] Referring to the effect of strong perfumes refreshing and exhilarating the spirits.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6-9 - The throne of this almighty King is established for ever. While the Holy Spirit leads Christ's people to look to his cross, he teaches the to see the evil of sin and the beauty of holiness; so that none of the can feel encouragement to continue in sin. The Mediator is God, else he had been neither able to do the Mediator's work, nor fit to wear the Mediator's crown. God the Father, as his God in respect to his huma nature and mediatorial offices, has given to him the Holy Spiri without measure. Thus anointed to be a Prophet, Priest, and King Christ has pre-eminence in the gladdening gifts and graces of the spirit, and from his fulness communicates them to his brethren in huma nature. The Spirit is called the oil of gladness, because of the delight wherewith Christ was filled, in carrying on his undertakings The salvation of sinners is the joy of angels, much more of the Son And in proportion as we are conformed to his holy image, we may expec the gladdening gifts influences of the Comforter. The excellences of the Messiah, the suitableness of his offices, and the sufficiency of his grace, seem to be intended by the fragrance of his garments. The church formed of true believers, is here compared to the queen, whom by an everlasting covenant, the Lord Jesus has betrothed to himself This is the bride, the Lamb's wife, whose graces are compared to fin linen, for their purity; to gold, for their costliness: for as we ow our redemption, so we owe our adorning, to the precious blood of the Son of God.
