Psalms45:11
11. So shall the King greatly desire thy beauty : for he is thy Lord , and worship thou him .
So doing thou shalt be amiable and acceptable to thy Husband; which will abundantly recompence thee, for the loss of thy Fathers house.
As he is thy Husband, and also as he is thy King, and God, as he was called, v. 6, And this is added, as a Reason not of the last Words, why the King would desire her Beauty; but of the Advice given to her, v. 10.
By which he implies that her Husband was no meer Man, but God also, and therefore might be adored without any Violation, of that known and immutable Precept of worshipping God onely.
