Sermon Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:11

Song of Solomon 6:11 I. The Church is a garden in a valley. This sets forth (1) the nature of her distinction; (2) the sufficiency of the protection which she enjoys; (3) the abundance of her supplies; (4) the lowliness of her condition. II. We have in this text Christ in the valley with His Church. He is with her (1) in the valley of temptation; (2) in the valley of tribulation; (3) in the valley of death. III. The text shows us Christ in His Church, looking for evidences. He comes to see (1)... read more
