by Young's Literal Translation

The Song of Songs, a book within the Hebrew Bible, is a lyrical expression of passionate love between a man and a woman. While some interpret it as a symbolic representation of the relationship between God and Israel or Christ and the Church, others appreciate its direct and sensual exploration of human love. The text uses vivid imagery and metaphors to depict the beauty, joy, and longing experienced by the lovers, highlighting the physical and emotional aspects of their connection.
