With Song of Songs 7:10, we continue our survey of Bible books and the Wisdom Literature. The Song of Solomon is sometimes seen as a celebration of love, which it is. Others have interpreted it as a depiction of the love between God and His people, which it is. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches the textual horizon: romance in marriage, the covenantal horizon: love of God for Israel, and the canonical horizon: love of God for those who are in Christ.
“I am my beloved’s, and his desire is for me.”
