Song of Songs

Nowhere in Scripture does the unspiritual mind tread ground so mysterious and incomprehensible as in this book, wnereas saintly men and women throughout the ages have found it a source of pure and exquisite delight. That the love of the divine Bridegroom, symbolized her by Solomon's love for the Shulammite maiden, should follow the anology of the marriage relationship seems evil only to minds that are so ascetic that marital desire itself appears to them to be unholy. The book is the expression of pure marital love as ordained by God in creation, and the vindication of that love as against both asceticism and lust-the two profanations of the holiness of marriage. The Song of Songs is also known as Canticles, inasmuch as ti contains a number of lyrics(canticles). These songs do not tell a connected story; the narrative may be discovered by piecing together details from various conversations and incidents in the book.
