TOTC 19: Song of Songs

An Introduction and Commentary.

This Old Testament book, 'the best of songs', has fascinated and perplexed
interpreters for centuries. We hear the passionate melody of romantic love, and
are confronted by erotic imagery - but whose love is described? Is it a
couple's love for each other, God's love for his people, or a poem that speaks
to love in all its dimensions? Iain Duguid's commentary explains how the Song
is designed to show us an idealized picture of married love, in the context of
a fallen and broken world. It also convicts us of how far short of this
perfection we fall, both as humans and as lovers, and drives us repeatedly into
the arms of our true heavenly husband, Jesus Christ. (= 9780830842865)
