—Song of Solomon 2:8-13
by: Dale Rood.
The Song of Solomon is a passionate love song of the groom for his bride. As such, it becomes a love song of Christ for his Bride, the Church. This book must be read as a bride reads a love letter from her fianc‚: she feasts on every word. As Christians, that is to be our stance toward our Lord Jesus Christ, because that is his stance toward us. This book expresses how passionately in love our Lord is with his people, the Church.
On a different note, compare verse 11 with I John 2:8. Consider what is past, and now in Jesus what season we are in.
