Description
The “Complete Guide to the Song of Solomon" is a Christ centered approach to the interpretation of the greatest love story every told. The Song of Solomon, is replete with temple imagery and in this Old Testament book of the bible, Solomon poetically portrays the one grand highlight of his era—the construction of the sanctuary. Through the personification of articles in the temple, Solomon gives context for the worshiper's participation in temple services. He desired for God's people to understand that their relationship with God through the sanctuary was not intended to be a dry round of ceremonies, but every portion of the sanctuary was meant to convey the most epic love story ever to grace the stage of human history—the unification of God and man through the atonement provided by the Lamb of God.
Written three thousand years ago, The Song of Solomon documents the conversation and interplay between Solomon and Shulamite. Solomon is a representation and “type” of the Prince of Peace, Shiloh, the Messiah, Jesus. Although the name “Solomon” does mean “peace”, it is also the word for a “garment,” or covering. The female counterpart in this story is named “Shulamite,” which is the name “Solomon” in the Hebrew feminine form. He is her covering and she is His. Inside the pages of The Song of Solomon we gain insight into what it means for God to make “peace” with man, covering our nakedness with His righteousness and humbling Himself to be covered by our faith and love. Unfolded before our very eyes we are acquainted with a God who is vulnerable, touchable, passionate and affected by our love.
The “Complete Guide to the Song of Solomon” also includes a modern re-translation of the Hebrew text, which captures the thrust of the original language. It also includes a 100 day reading plan that can be done individually or along side a group since it comes equipped with a 14 week study guide to help facilitate group discussions. In every verse we unearth meaningful insight into the original language and attempt to bring to life the original intent of the conversation. This book is far from being a dry read. It is thoughtful as well as highly devotional, designed to bring the reader into a closer walk with Christ packing the perfect blend between thought provoking and heartfelt.
