Song of Solomon is a beautiful love story if you desire to read it do so in the Spirit of God as He shows the true meaning of this poem..........Jewish tradition reads it as an allegory of the relationship between God and Israel .......Christian tradition, in addition to appreciating the literal meaning of a romantic song between man and woman, has read the poem as an allegory of Christ and his "bride", the Christian Church.
............I will put some of my favorite verses from this book...................This book emphasizes the supremacy of love........Human fulfillment in the love of a man and a woman........Spiritual fulfillment in the love of humans and God. Jesus brings fulfillment of love on both the human and the spiritual. He manifest God's love to mankind....So we can love Him, and love others. Matthew 22:37-39 gives us the greatest commandment, namely: to love God with all our hearts souls and minds, and love our neighbors as ourselves. Having love for God and love for others are very important to God. 1 John 4:17 says, "We love, because He first loved us." This book helps us love, which we can do as believers because God has shed abroad His love in our hearts (Rom. 5:5).
When Solomon originally wrote this book, it was a poem about the love of two people, a man and a woman, for each other. What it reveals about love is applicable to human love. However, since God revealed and inspired it as part of Scripture, He also intended us to apply it to our spiritual lives,our relationship with God. That is the purpose of every other book of the Bible, and I believe that this was God's purpose in giving us this book as well. In Ephesians, Paul wrote that we should learn about Christ's love for the church from marriage (Eph. 5:32).
S. 1:15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou art fair; thou hast doves eyes.2:2..... To have dove's eyes is to have spiritual eyes. The dove is a picture of the Holy Spirit, as shown in Jesus' baptism in River Jordan at the beginning of His ministry on earth. As for us, once we believe on the Lord Jesus, He has sent the Holy Spirit to abide in us forever and teach us all things. "Dove’s eyes have fixed field focus; they can only focus on one thing at a time. Usually it is their mate! Once a dove sees something or someone who captures its attention its eyes are trained on that object. It is not distracted from this focal point..
I AM THE ROSE OF SHARRON, THE LILY OF THE VALLEYS...this is a name for Jesus being the Rose of Sharron proclaiming who He is....
2:4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and His banner over me was love............this vs. i think of being with Jesus forever and the marriage supper of the Lamb, and His eternal love.
2:10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, rise up , my love, my fair one, and come away....i think of His Coming as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. as saying the time has come......be ready to go....to be with..
4:7 Thou art all fair , my love; there is no spot in thee......When is see no spot i think of the spotless bride of Christ that Jesus is coming for.
4:15 A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon. Our love for God and His love for us is also mutual satisfaction. He satisfies our every need and our every want.
He also finds satisfaction in us. This is amazing! Zeph. 3:17 reveals
that God rejoices
in His people! When i see living water i think of Jesus as the living water the word tells us...we will never thirst again
Love in Christ Sherril... ps...there is much more meaning to this book for understanding from Gods heart.....
