Cânticos 7:2-3 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Song of Solomon 7:1-9

The title which Jesus Christ here gives to the church is new: O prince's daughter! agreeing with Ps. 45:13; where she is called the king's daughter. She is so in respect of her new birth, born from above, begotten of God, and his workmanship, bearing the image of the King of kings, and guided by his Spirit. She is so by marriage; Christ, by betrothing her to himself, though he found her mean and despicable, has made her a prince's daughter. She has a princely disposition, something in her... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 7:2

Thy navel is like a round goblet ,.... According to some, not the navel itself is meant; but a covering of it, a jewel or plate of gold in the shape of it; and because the word for "round", in the Chaldee language, signifies the "moon", and so Ben Melech interprets it, some have thought of the "round tire like the moon", Isaiah 3:18 ; though that was rather an ornament about the neck. Bishop Patrick is of opinion that it refers to "the clothing of wrought gold", Psalm 45:13 ; which... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Song of Solomon 7:2

Thy navel is like a round goblet - This may also refer to some ornamental dress about the loins. These suppositions are rendered very probable from hundreds of the best finished and highly decorated drawings of Asiatic ladies in my own collection, where every thing appears in the drawings, as in nature. A heap of wheat set about with lilies - This is another instance of the same kind. The richly embroidered dresses in the above drawings may amply illustrate this also. Ainsworth supposes... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 7:1-5

The chorus of maidens praise the beauty of the bride. I. THE PRELUDE . 1 . The address. They address her as, "O prince's daughter." She is not a king's daughter, like the bride of Psalms 45:1-17 , but she is of honourable extraction. Though she lived in the retired district of Lebanon, and had been brought up there in rustic occupations, her family was one of some distinction. So Joseph, the carpenter of Nazareth, was recognized by the angel Gabriel, and was known among men by... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Song of Solomon 7:2

Thy navel is like a round goblet, wherein no mingled wine is wanting: thy belly is like a heap of wheat set about with lilies. It must be remembered that ladies are speaking of one who is in the ladies' apartment. There is nettling indelicate in the description, though it is scarcely Western. The "round goblet," or basin, with mixed wine, i.e. wine with water or snow mixed with it, is intended to convey the idea of the shape of the lovely body with its flesh colour appearing through the... read more

Thy two breasts are like two fawns that are twins of a roe. So in So Song of Solomon 4:5 ; but there the addition occurs, "which feed among the lilies." This is omitted here, perhaps, only because lilies are just before spoken of. The description is now in the lips of the ladies; before it was uttered by the king himself. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Song of Solomon 7:2

Or, Thy lap is like a moon-shaped bowl where mixed wine faileth not.” The wine in the bowl rising to the brim adds to the beauty of the vessel, and gives a more pleasing image to the eye. Some interpret, “thy girdle is like a moon-shaped bowl,” or “bears a moon-shaped ornament” (compare Isaiah 3:18).Set about with lilies - The contrast is one of colors, the flowers, it may be, representing the purple of the robe. “The heap of wheat is not seen because covered by the lilies.” read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 7:1-13

6:4-8:14 THE STRENGTH OF TRUE LOVEDesires for each other (6:4-7:13)Using language that he has used before, the man again praises the girl’s loveliness (4-7; cf. 4:1-3). The nation’s most beautiful women may have been chosen for the palace harem, but they must look with envy upon the beauty of the lovely farm girl who is his beloved (8-10). In a brief parenthesis that follows, the two lovers are reminded of an occasion when they met on the farm. The girl was carried away by her lover’s charms as... read more
