Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk Mazmur 45:10

This is what Tractate Rosh Hashanah 4a is expressing in its interpretation of this verse describing [God’s promise to] Israel: “Daughters of kings are with your precious ones; at your right hand the shegal stands erect in the golden jewelry of Ophir.”²Psalms 45:10. If shegal means “dog,” what promise is the prophet bringing to Israel? What he means is this: Because the Torah is as dear to Israel as a shegal is to the heathens, you have earned as your reward the gold of Ophir.”

And the queen Heb. וְהֻצַּב. She is the queen who stands to the right of the king, as is stated (Ps. 45:10): “The queen stands to your right.”

This is [consistent with] the wording of the verse, “Benos [daughters] of kings are with your precious ones; the shegal,” etc.²¹Psalms 45:10. It was previously explained [in chapter 5], the exegesis of the Sages of blessed memory in Tractate Rosh Hashanah 4a that [“daughters of kings”] refers to those who diligently study the Torah with an intense love. The Torah helps those who reach such a level to understand the other types of wisdom and thus learn those areas of Torah that require [secular knowledge] to fully comprehend them. “Daughters of kings” refer to the various forms of knowledge possessed by the kings of the nations of the world. “Are with your precious ones,” mean that the nations of the world, will hold you in high regard [as “precious”], for he who is learned in Torah and is also wise in secular knowledge causes the Torah’s to be held in higher regard – that the Torah is the main structure of the world.²²See this verse explained in Harhev Davar on Gen. 45:16.
