The bridegroom
Your neck is like the tower of David,
built with rows of stones;
on it hang a thousand shields,
all of them shields of warriors.
Your breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle grazing among the lilies.
Before the day breaks and the shadows flee,
I will make my way
to the mountain of myrrh
and to the hill of frankincense.
You are altogether beautiful, my darling;
in you there is no flaw.
Song of Solomon 4:7
Question
Quick question
Back to the tower of David in verse 4.
Why would he compare her to a tower hung with shields?
Come with Me, My Bride
Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,
come with me from Lebanon!
Descend from the peak of Amana,
from the summits of Senir and Hermon,
from the dens of the lions,
from the mountains of the leopards.

Narrated by Bob Souer · BSB audio, public domain
You have captured my heart,
my sister, my bride;
you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your neck.
How delightful is your love,
my sister, my bride!
Your love is much better than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume than all spices.
Your lips, my bride,
drip sweetness like the honeycomb;
honey and milk are under your tongue,
and the fragrance of your garments
is like the aroma of Lebanon.
Pray
A prayer for love
Thank God that He made love and calls it good. Pray for the marriages you know. And pray for anyone who finds a chapter like this hard to read.
A Garden Locked Up
Awake, O north wind,
and come, O south wind.
Breathe on my garden
and spread the fragrance of its spices.
Let my beloved come into his garden
and taste its choicest fruits.
