Song of Songs (10) - The Fragrances of the Groom and Bride (SS1 V3)

This channel is inspired by the Virgin Mary’s obedient spirit that pondered the word of God (Lk 2:19), treasured it and kept it in her heart (Lk 2:51). In following her example, the channel aims to create a sacred space of encounter with the Lord, and to lead people down a path of spiritual intimacy with Him.

In this series on the Song of Songs, I dissect this beautiful book of the Bible verse by verse. At the end of each video, I suggest a thought, image, or idea to ponder on during your personal prayer time.

Verse of the episode: SS 1:3 – “Your anointing oils are fragrant.”
