Introduction 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Ecclesiastes Isaiah
Song of Solomon 4
4:1 Behold,
thou [art]
a fair, my love; behold, thou
[art] fair; thou [hast] doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair [is] as a
b
flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.
(
a) Because Christ delights in his Church, he
commends all that is in her.
(
b) He has respect for the multitude of the
faithful, which are many in number.
4:5
Thy two
c breasts [are] like two young
roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
(
c) In which are knowledge and zeal two precious
jewels.
4:8 d
Come with me from Lebanon, [my] spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top
of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the
mountains of the leopards.
(
d) Christ promises his Church to call his
faithful from all the corners of the world.
4:9 Thou hast ravished my heart, my
e
sister, [my] spouse; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thy
f
eyes, with one chain of thy neck.
(
e) Christ calls his Church sister in respect
that he had taken the flesh of man.
(
f) In that he made his Church beautiful and
rich, he loved his gifts in her.
4:11 Thy
g
lips, O [my] spouse, drop [as] the honeycomb: honey and milk [are] under thy
tongue; and the scent of thy garments [is] like the fragrance of Lebanon.
(
g) Because of your confession and thanksgiving.
4:15
h A fountain of gardens, a well of
living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
(
h) The Church confesses that all her glory and
beauty comes from Christ who is the true fountain of all grace.
4:16 Awake, O
i
north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, [that] its spices may
flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.
(
i) She desires Christ to comfort her and to pour
the graces of his Spirit on her, which is meant by the North and South wind.
