Gospel of Love Video Series (54): Song of Solomon

In the famous Song of Solomon, Solomon expresses his longing to be united with His beloved Lord, “Let Him kiss me with kisses of His mouth! More delightful is Your love than wine. Bring me, O King, to Your chambers. O My Lover, here He comes across the mountains, across the hills. My lover is radiant and ruddy; He stands out among thousands. His head is golden, His locks are like palm fronds, black as a raven. His eyes are like doves beside running waters. His teeth would seem bathed in milk and are set like jewels. His lips are red blossoms. His arms are rods of gold adorned with chrysolites. His body is a work of ivory covered with sapphires. His legs are columns of marble. His mouth is all sweetness itself; He is all delight. Such is My Lover, and such is My Friend.”

These detailed descriptions by Solomon of the personal beauty of the Supreme Person are in agreement with very similar depictions of the Supreme Lord in other scriptures.

For us to develop a longing to again be united in love with the Supreme Person, it is important that we regularly hear about Him.
