Set me as a seal. For the sake of that love, seal me upon Your heart,6In the same manner that a seal is affixed on one’s hand and is not removed, so too, set me as a seal upon Your heart. (Metzudas Dovid) so that You do not forget me, and You will see.
Ezra ben Solomon
Place me like a seal: When we separate during the time of exile, place me like that well known seal.
Rashi
For love is as strong as death. The extent of my love that I loved You is to me equal to my death, for I am killed for Your sake.7My love to You is so strong that I would choose death before relinquishing my love for You. (Metzudas Dovid)
Ezra ben Solomon

Jealousy is as harsh as the grave. The quarrel that the nations were jealous and quarreled with me because of You. “קִנְאָה” every place [in Scripture] means enprenment in O.F., an expression of conveying feelings to wreak vengeance.
Rashi
Fire from the flame of God. Coals of a strong fire that comes from the force of the flame of Gehinnom. The cantillation symbol of the zakef gadol, which punctuates “רִשְׁפֵּי” teaches us about the word “אֵשׁ [fire],” that it is connected to “שַׁלְהֶבֶתְיָה,” meaning “fire from the flame of God.”
