CHAPTER 1
Most of the ladies who read this will be able to relate to being the bride of Christ but if you men are anything like my husband, although that has been changinglately, you may find that difficult. Love is the key word here. This wonderful book of the Bible was included for good reason because it calls us to new levels of intimacy with our dear bridegroom the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Quote:The song of songs, which is concerning Solomon, who as the son and successor of David, on whom the covenant of royalty was entailed, as the founder of thetemple, and as one that excelled in wisdom and wealth, was a type of Christ, inwhom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, and yet is a greater than Solomon; this is therefore a song concerning him. It is here fitly placed after Ecclesiastes; for when by the book we are thoroughly convinced of thevanity of the creature, and its insufficiency to satisfy us and make a happiness for us, we shall be quickened to seek for happiness in the love of Christ, and that true transcendent pleasure which is to be found only in communion with God through him. The voice in the wilderness, that was to prepare Christ’s way, cried, All flesh is grass. (Matthew Henry's commentary on the whole Bible )
Son 1:1 Solomon's Song of Songs.BelovedSon 1:2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth-for your love is more delightful than wine.
Can you feel the sweet kisses of the groom, the sweet, sweet passionate kisses of Jesus? Oh how He loves you and I! Just one kiss from Him and I am undone, for His kisses are sweeter than any other kiss we could ever experience, and I am awoman who is in love with her husband of nearly thirty years. But the kisses theLord gives to us are life giving, life changing, they breathe life, strength, hope,faith, joy, healing and peace into us His bride. They are sweeter than the sweetestwine. He gives us new wine, sweeter than any other.
Psa 34:8 Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good;Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!
