Psalms 45:13 - Exposition

The King's daughter is all glorious within . The "King's daughter "of this passage can be no other than the bride herself—the" queen" of Psalms 45:9 . As among her attendants some were "kings' daughters" ( Psalms 45:9 ), so she could be no less. She is "glorious," not only without, in her robe of" gold of Ophir," but also and especially within—in the inner chamber of the heart—where she is indeed "glorious," through the sanctifying presence of God's Holy Spirit ( Ephesians 5:26 , Ephesians 5:27 ). Her clothing is of wrought gold (comp. Psalms 45:9 , and the comment ad loc. ) .
