Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:4-10

Now we must suppose Christ graciously returned to his spouse, from whom he had withdrawn himself, returned to converse with her (for he speaks to her and makes her to hear joy and gladness), returned to favour her, having forgiven and forgotten all her unkindness, for he speaks very tenderly and respectfully to her. I. He pronounces her truly amiable (Song 6:4): Thou art beautiful, O my love! as Tirzah, a city in the tribe of Manasseh, whose name signifies pleasant, or acceptable, the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:8

There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number. In this verse and Song of Solomon 6:9 the church is commended as she stood related to others; and is compared with them, and preferred to them. The words may be considered either as an assertion, "there are", &c.; or as a supposition, "though there be", &c.; yet Christ's church is but one, and excels them all. "Queens" are principal and lawful wives of kings; "concubines", secondary or half wives, as... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:9

My dove, my undefiled, is but one ,.... Of these titles, see Song of Solomon 2:14 . Christ's church is called one, in distinction from the many before mentioned; and either designs her small number, in comparison of the nations of the world, and of false churches, like one to sixty or eighty, and even to an innumerable company; see Ecclesiastes 9:14 , Luke 12:32 ; or else her unity in herself, being but one general assembly and church of the firstborn, made up of various particular... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:10

Who is she that looketh forth as the morning ?.... These words may be connected with the preceding, by a supplement of the word "saying"; and so may express what the daughters said, when they blessed and praised the church, wondering at her beauty, it being like the rising morning; so Helena is said to show her beautiful face, αως αντελλοισα , as the morning, when it springs forth F14 Theocrit. Idyll. 18. v. 26. : there was a city in the tribe of Reuben, called Zarethshahar, the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Song of Solomon 6:8

There are threescore queens - Though there be sixty queens, and eighty concubines, or secondary wives, and virgins innumerable, in my harem, yet thou, my dove, my undefiled, art אצת achath , One, the Only One, she in whom I delight beyond all. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Song of Solomon 6:9

The daughters saw her, and blessed her - Not only the Jewish women in general spoke well of her on her arrival, but the queens and concubines praised her as the most accomplished of her sex. With this verse the fourth night of the marriage week is supposed to end. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Song of Solomon 6:10

Looketh forth as the morning - The bride is as lovely as the dawn of day, the Aurora, or perhaps the morning star, Venus. She is even more resplendent, she is as beautiful as the Moon. She even surpasses her, for she is as clear and bright as the Sun; and dangerous withal to look on, for she is as formidable as the vast collection of lights that burn by night at the head of every company in a numerous caravan. See the note on Song of Solomon 6:4 ; (note). The comparison of a fine woman to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:4-9

The bridegroom's praise of the bride. I. RENEWED ENUMERATION OF HER GRACES . 1 . General praise of her beauty. Her beauty is compared to the beauty of Tirzah or Jerusalem. She is beautiful as Tirzah, which word means "grace" or "beauty;" comely as Jerusalem, the habitation or foundation of peace. The bridegroom mentions Tirzah as well as Jerusalem, which seems to imply that the song was written before the division of the kingdom. The bride is beautiful as Tirzah was to the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:4-10

Christ's picture of his Church. The value of an encomium depends on the qualification of the speaker. If a man is a master of eloquent phrases, and knows but little of the person he eulogizes, his encomium is little worth. If, on the other hand, the speaker is a skilful judge of character, and knows well the person, and speaks from pure motives, his estimate is priceless. Now, the best judge of the quality of a wife is her own husband, for no one else has such opportunities of knowing her... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 6:8-9

There are three score queens, and four score concubines, and virgins without number. My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and called her blessed; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. The account given us of Solomon's harem in 1 Kings 11:3 represents the number as much larger. Is not that because the time referred to in the poem was early in the reign? The words are an... read more
