I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
Psalm 45 is a Messianic prophecy of Christ and His church, foretelling the Saviour and His work of redemption and triumph for humanity. God Himself will cause the King's name, Christ's name, to be remembered in every generation, so that the people praise Him for ever and ever as His gospel goes out to win the world to Himself. That enduring remembrance and praise belong to His triumph and everlasting throne and His marriage with the church, as the righteous King and Prince of peace and great peacemaker on earth and in heaven. It looks to the millennial era and His personal return before it, when He rides forth triumphantly and sits upon His own throne for ever and ever, no longer marred but fairer than the children of men, with the queen as the Bride at His right hand. Those who held the other teaching held the name to be remembered to be the church's name, praised for ever.
Words and Setting

It is counted among the Messianic Psalms, and its promise that the king's name will be remembered and praised through all generations belongs to the enduring reign of the Messiah. It is one of the psalms that is prophetic of Christ.
The psalm is a prophecy of Christ and his church. It is a prophetic song about Christ and the church, speaking of a name remembered through every generation and of praise that continues forever. It is a prophecy of Christ and his work and triumph, in which Christ's name will be remembered through every generation and people will praise him forever. In this prophetic setting the name remembered through every generation is the church's name, and praise for it continues forever.
The psalm is held by Abyssinian Jews and Christians to prophesy the queen of Sheba's visit to Jerusalem. In the verse, generation denotes an indefinite period of future time rather than a fixed span of years.
Christ's Triumph and Renown
The psalm means the Messiah would be a righteous King and emphatically the Prince of peace, fulfilled by Jesus Christ as one eminently distinguished as a righteous person and as the great peacemaker both on earth and in heaven.
The name to be remembered through every generation is the church's name, and praise for it continues forever. The name to be remembered in every generation is Christ's, the king's name, and the people will praise him forever and ever as his gospel goes out to win the world to himself. It belongs to a prophecy of Christ and his work and triumph and to a prophetic song about Christ and the church, and it is listed among the Messianic Psalms connecting the promise that the king's name will be remembered and praised with the enduring reign of the Messiah.
God himself causes Christ's name to be remembered through every generation and praised forever, and though no buildings, writings, images, or inscriptions from Christ's own time are cited as preserving his name, it has become great among the nations as God's work. In the psalm's millennial setting, this enduring praise belongs to Christ's triumph, his everlasting throne, and his marriage with the church.
The psalm describes the millennial era and promises Christ's personal pre-millennial return, when he rides forth triumphantly with the people falling under him and sits not at the Father's throne but upon his own throne for ever and ever, no longer marred and without comeliness but fairer than the children of men. At his right hand stands the queen as the Bride, the Lamb's wife, and the marriage festival is celebrated. The triumph means Jehovah of hosts is with men on earth, making wars cease unto the end of the earth and quelling the tumult of the nations to exalt God in the earth. Because the Bridegroom is the second person of the Trinity, not the third, the triumphal procession and marriage are not an emblem of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
