The love of the church to Christ6. The vehemence of love 8. The calling of the Gentiles 14. the church prays for Christ's coming (5) Who is this that cometh.--This begins a new section, which contains the most magnificent description of true love ever written by poet. The dramatic theory encounters insuperable difficulties with this strophe. Again we presume that the theatre and the spectators are imaginary. It is another sweet reminiscence, coming most naturally and beautifully after the last. The obstacles have been removed, the pair are united, and the poet recalls the delightful sensations with which he led his bride through the scenes where the youth of both had been spent, and then bursts out into the glorious panegyric of that pure and perfect passion which had united them. Leaning upon her beloved . . .--The LXX. add here shining white, and the Vulgate, flowing with delights. I raised thee up.--Literally, aroused: i.e., I inspired thee with love. For this sense of exciting a passion, given to the Hebrew word, compare Proverbs 10:12; Zechariah 9:13. Delitzsch restores from the Syriac what must have been the original vowel-pointing, making the suffixes feminine instead of masculine. There thy mother . . .--Not necessarily under the apple-tree, which is commemorated as the scene of the betrothal, but near it. The poet delights to recall these early associations, the feelings with which he had watched her home and waited her coming. The Vulg. has here ibi corrupta est mater tua, ibi violata est genetrix tua, which savours of allegory. So in later times the tree has been taken to stand for the Cross, the individual excited to love under it the Gentiles redeemed at the foot of the Cross, and the deflowered and corrupted mother the synagogue of the Jews (the mother of the Christian Church), which was corrupted by denying and crucifying the Saviour. Verses 5-14. - Part V. CONCLUSION. THE BRIDEGROOM AND THE BRIDE IN THE SCENE OF THEIR FIRST LOVE. Verse 5a. - Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? We must compare this question with the corresponding one in Song of Solomon 3:6. In that case the inhabitants of Jerusalem are supposed to be looking forth, and behold the bridal procession approaching the capital. In this case the scene is transferred to the country, to the neighbourhood of the bride's home, where she has desired to be with her lord. The country people, or the group of her relatives, are supposed to be gazing at the pair of lovers, not coming in royal state, but in the sweet simplicity of true affection, the bride leaning with loving confidence on the arm of her husband, as they were seen before in the time of their "first love." The restoration of "first love" is often the prayer of the disciple, feeling how far he falls short of the affection which such a Master should call forth. The first feelings of the heart when it is won to Christ are very delightful."Where is the blessedness I knew Hebrew Whoמִ֣י (mî) Interrogative Strong's 4310: Who?, whoever, in oblique construction with prefix, suffix is this זֹ֗את (zōṯ) Pronoun - feminine singular Strong's 2063: Hereby in it, likewise, the one other, same, she, so much, such deed, that, coming up עֹלָה֙ (‘ō·lāh) Verb - Qal - Participle - feminine singular Strong's 5927: To ascend, in, actively from מִן־ (min-) Preposition Strong's 4480: A part of, from, out of the wilderness, הַמִּדְבָּ֔ר (ham·miḏ·bār) Article | Noun - masculine singular Strong's 4057: A pasture, a desert, speech leaning מִתְרַפֶּ֖קֶת (miṯ·rap·pe·qeṯ) Verb - Hitpael - Participle - feminine singular Strong's 7514: To shake, rock on her עַל־ (‘al-) Preposition Strong's 5921: Above, over, upon, against beloved? דּוֹדָ֑הּ (dō·w·ḏāh) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person feminine singular Strong's 1730: To love, a love-token, lover, friend, an uncle I roused you עֽוֹרַרְתִּ֔יךָ (‘ō·w·rar·tî·ḵā) Verb - Piel - Perfect - first person common singular | second person masculine singular Strong's 5782: To rouse oneself, awake under תַּ֤חַת (ta·ḥaṯ) Preposition Strong's 8478: The bottom, below, in lieu of the apple tree; הַתַּפּ֙וּחַ֙ (hat·tap·pū·aḥ) Article | Noun - masculine singular Strong's 8598: An apple, the fruit, the tree there שָׁ֚מָּה (māh) Adverb | third person feminine singular Strong's 8033: There, then, thither your mother אִמֶּ֔ךָ (’im·me·ḵā) Noun - feminine singular construct | second person masculine singular Strong's 517: A mother, ) conceived you, חִבְּלַ֣תְךָ (ḥib·bə·laṯ·ḵā) Verb - Piel - Perfect - second person feminine singular | second person masculine singular Strong's 2254: To wind tightly, to bind, a pledge, to pervert, destroy, to writhe in pain there שָׁ֖מָּה (šām·māh) Adverb | third person feminine singular Strong's 8033: There, then, thither she travailed חִבְּלָ֥ה (ḥib·bə·lāh) Verb - Piel - Perfect - third person feminine singular Strong's 2254: To wind tightly, to bind, a pledge, to pervert, destroy, to writhe in pain and brought you forth. יְלָדַֽתְךָ׃ (yə·lā·ḏaṯ·ḵā) Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person feminine singular | second person masculine singular Strong's 3205: To bear young, to beget, medically, to act as midwife, to show lineage Links Song of Solomon 8:5 NIVSong of Solomon 8:5 NLT Song of Solomon 8:5 ESV Song of Solomon 8:5 NASB Song of Solomon 8:5 KJV Song of Solomon 8:5 BibleApps.com Song of Solomon 8:5 Biblia Paralela Song of Solomon 8:5 Chinese Bible Song of Solomon 8:5 French Bible Song of Solomon 8:5 Catholic Bible OT Poetry: Song of Solomon 8:5 Who is this who comes up (Song Songs SS So Can) |
