You loved righteousness, and you hated lawlessness: Paul continues his quotation of Ps 45:6, 7, which contains an inspired prophecy about God’s Messianic King. During his earthly ministry, Jesus clearly demonstrated that he loved righteousness and hated lawlessness. (Mt 21:12, 13; 23:27, 28, 33; Joh 2:13-17; Heb 7:26; 1Pe 2:22) The Scriptures often show that love of what is right in God’s eyes is inseparably connected with hatred for what is wrong.—Ps 97:10; 119:113, 163; Isa 61:8; Am 5:15.
anointed you with the oil of exultation: In Bible times, many kings were appointed to office by being anointed with literal oil. (1Sa 10:1; 1Ki 1:39; 2Ki 9:6) Oil was associated with exultation, or joy. (Isa 61:3; Joe 2:23, 24) Here Paul quotes Ps 45:7, which speaks prophetically of a joyful event, the anointing of the Messiah as King. The Messiah’s exultation, or joy, would be greater than that of his companions, that is, the kings of the royal line of David. Unlike those kings, the Messiah would be anointed by Jehovah personally, not with literal oil, but with holy spirit. At the time of his baptism, Jesus was anointed as future King and High Priest. However, the anointing that Paul here mentions apparently refers to the joyful event in heaven when Jesus was enthroned as King at the end of the Gentile Times. (Lu 21:24 and study note) No doubt that heavenly celebration was far more joyful than any earthly event, including the celebration at the anointing of David’s son Solomon.—1Ki 1:39, 40.
