The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:5-7

Faint for love. Keeping to the spiritual, not the historical, interpretation, these verses suggest what is common to all, but confessed here only by the saintly soul. I. CHRIST SHARES IT . He said when on the cross, "I thirst," and that told not alone of his physics thirst, but of that sacred, insatiable, and still unsatisfied thirst for the love of human hearts. He could say, "I am faint for love." And yet he yearns for that love, though much he already possesses, and will more... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:7

I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the toes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awaken love, until it please. The fact that these words occur again in So Song of Solomon 3:5 and Song of Solomon 8:4 shows that they are a kind of chorus or refrain. It is also evident that they are in the lips of Shulamith the bride. Some have suggested that they are uttered by some one else, e.g. the queen-mother subsequently referred to, Solomon himself, the heavenly... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:8

The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh, leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills. There can be little doubt as to the meaning of this song. The bride is going back in thought to the scenes of her home life, and the sweet days of first love. "The house stands alone among the rocks and deep in the mountain range; around are the vineyards which the family have planted, and the hill pastures on which they feed their flocks. She longingly looks out for her distant lover." The... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:8-10

The approach of the beloved. How poetically does this language picture the rural maiden m her mountain home—the lover climbing the hill like a young hart for strength and swiftness, looking in through the lattice window, calling to his beloved, and inviting her to join him amidst the beauty, the fragrance, and the freshness of the spring! So comes Christ unto the soul. I. THE VOICE OF THE BELOVED . Jesus speaks in his Word and gospel, and his utterance is There is no voice... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:8-13

Christ's coming makes a new epoch in our history. Nature is a mirror in which God is seen, and all the processes of nature are samples of God's works in us. Such analogies we ought to expect, because all the forces in nature are the projections of God's thoughts and purposes. The same God who works so mightily in the material world works with mighty grace in us. If, in the visible creation, he gives life to dead matter, so does he likewise give life to dead souls. The sun which rides in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:8-17

The visit of the beloved. I. THE BRIDE 'S NARRATIVE . 1 . The description of his first coming. The bride seems to be relating to the chorus the circumstances of her first meeting with the bridegroom. The King of Israel sought her in her humble home among the mountains of Lebanon; there he wooed and won her to be his bride. So the heavenly Bridegroom, the true Solomon who built the spiritual temple of living stones, came from his glory throne to seek his bride, the Church; so he... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:8-17

The soul wooed and won. In this lovely pastoral the literal meaning is, we think, as stated in introduction to homily on Song of Solomon 2:15 . But it may be taken as setting forth how Christ woes and wins the souls he loves. The various stages are shown. I. THE SOUL HEARS HIS VOICE . "The voice of my Beloved" ( Song of Solomon 2:8 ). It is as said in John 10:1-42 ; "My sheep hear my voice." They hear it in the loving exhortations of those who would win them for... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:9

My beloved is like a roe or a young hart; behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh in at the windows, he showeth himself through the lattice. The tsevi is the gazelle, Arabic ghazal. Our word is derived through the Spanish or Moorish gazela . The young hart, or chamois, is probably so called from the covering of young hair (cf. 2 Samuel 2:18 ; Proverbs 6:5 ; Hebrews 3:19 ). Shulamith represents herself as within the house, waiting for her friend. Her beloved is standing... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 2:10

My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. The word "spake" Conveys the meaning in answer to a person appearing, but not necessarily in answer to a voice heard. We most suppose that Shulamith recognized her beloved, and made some sign that she was near, or looked forth from the window. As the soul responds, it is more and more invited; the voice of the Bridegroom is heard calling the object of his love by name, "I have called thee by thy name; thou art... read more
