Signifying the church, especially the overcomers, as the unique wife of Christ. In Rev. 19:7 and Rev. 19:9a, the wife of the Lamb is a corporate bride composed of the overcoming believers invited to the marriage dinner of the Lamb (see note Rev. 19:72c and note Rev. 19:91b). Likewise, in this psalm the queen does not signify an individual; rather, she signifies a corporate entity composed of all her companions: the daughters of kings as the honorable women and the virgins as her friends (v. 14). Thus, in this psalm Solomon the king with his many wives and concubines, who were princesses, daughters of Gentile kings (1 Kings 11:1, 3), are used in a positive sense to typify Christ as the King with His corporate wife, the church (John 3:29; Eph. 5:24-25, 31-32), composed of His believers from every tribe, tongue, people, and nation (Rev. 5:9).
In v. 8 the church is typified by the ivory palaces, the building, and in this verse the church is pictured as the queen, the wife. In the entire Scriptures these two figures — the building and the bride — are used to signify the church (cf. Gen. 2:22 and notes). On the one hand, the church is the building, the house, of God (1 Tim. 3:15), and on the other hand it is the bride, the wife, of Christ (2 Cor. 11:2).
