Bible (KJV) 22: Song of Solomon

by King James Version

The Song of Solomon, often referred to as Canticles, is a poetic masterpiece within the Hebrew Bible. It's a collection of passionate dialogues between a man and a woman, their words celebrating the beauty and intensity of their love. While the text itself doesn't explicitly offer a religious message, it has been traditionally interpreted as an allegory of God's love for Israel or, in a Christian context, Christ's love for the Church. It's a work that explores the depths of human desire and the power of love, offering a rich tapestry of imagery and emotion.
