Mon cœur agite un beau dessein; je veux consacrer mon poème au roi! Ma langue est le burin d’un scribe expert.
Ibn Ezra
braised i.e., fried. Some people claim the word derives from “my heart overflows” [Psalms 45:2], on account of the noisiness of the process.
Rabbeinu Bahya
הלא אנכי “Is it not I?” Possibly the addition of the word י-ה-ו-ה at the end of this verse is a reference to the emanation בינה, (נשמה) which is given an outlet by means of the power of speech possessed by man. This idea is reflected in (Job 32,8) “but truly it is the spirit in man, the breath of Shaddai that gives them understanding.” Psalms 45,2 alludes to this when the sons of Korach observe: “I speak my poem to a king; my tongue is the pen of an expert scribe.” I have made some comment on this phenomenon on Genesis 1,26 נעשה אדם .
