We--the Trinity implied by the Holy Ghost, whether it was so by the writer of the Song or not (Gen 1:26; Pro 8:30; Pro 30:4). "The Jews acknowledged God as king, and Messiah as king, in interpreting the Song, but did not know that these two are one" [LEIGHTON].
make--not merely give (Eph 2:10).
borders of gold, with studs of silver--that is, "spots of silver"--Jesus Christ delights to give more "to him that hath" (Mat 25:29). He crowns His own work in us (Isa 26:12). The "borders" here are equivalent to "rows" (Sol 1:10); but here, the King seems to give the finish to her attire, by adding a crown (borders, or circles) of gold studded with silver spots, as in Est 2:17. Both the royal and nuptial crown, or chaplet. The Hebrew for "spouse" (Sol 4:8) is a crowned one (Eze 16:12; Rev 2:10). The crown is given at once upon conversion, in title, but in sensible possession afterwards (Ti2 4:8). |
