Kommentar zu Tehillim 45:8
אָהַ֣בְתָּ צֶּדֶק֮ וַתִּשְׂנָ֫א רֶ֥שַׁע עַל־כֵּ֤ן ׀ מְשָׁחֲךָ֡ אֱלֹהִ֣ים אֱ֭לֹהֶיךָ שֶׁ֥מֶן שָׂשׂ֗וֹן מֵֽחֲבֵרֶֽיךָ׃
Du liebst Gerechtigkeit und hassest Frevel, darum salbte dich Gott, dein Gott, mit Wonne-Öl vor deinen Genossen.
Rashi on Psalms
anointed you...with oil of joy Every expression of greatness is depicted by the anointment of oil, as is the custom of the kings.
