The Song of Songs (or Solomon) sticks out in the middle of the Old Testament. What is that all about? Songs between a lover and his beloved? What does this have to do with God's plan for his creation? Where is the great spiritual message?
...for your love is more delightful than wine. - Song of Songs 1:2 NIV
He has taken me to the banquet hall,
and his banner over me is love. - Song of Songs 2:4 NIV
My lover is mine and I am his; - Song of Songs 2:16 NIV:
...when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go...Song of Songs 3:4 NIV
Such love is difficult to comprehend, even more difficult to experience.
Dedicated to Derek Loux who is now in the presence of the Lover of his Soul.
