Song of Songs (Program #2) – Drawn to Pursue Christ for Satisfaction (1)
“Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!
For your love is better than wine.” (Song of Songs 1:2)
This intimate and tender language might be thought to be from a great love sonnet from Shakespeare or Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Yet it’s actually from the opening lines of the book Song of Songs in the Old Testament. Why is a love poem given precious space in the pages of the Bible? There seems to be no way to understand such a book by studying in a doctrinal or theological perspective. It is purely a book of experience and to understand it properly we must learn to interpret the types and figures.
