Sermons on the Canticle of Canticles, Volume 1
'Sermons on the Canticle of Canticles, Volume 1' Summary
The Song of Songs, a biblical text often interpreted as an allegory of divine love, is the subject of this collection of sermons by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. Bernard's sermons explore the themes of divine love, the nature of the soul, and the path to spiritual union with God. He allegorically interprets the Song of Songs as a dialogue between Christ and the soul, and his sermons are filled with passionate and profound insights into the nature of human love and longing. Bernard's writing is known for its eloquence and beauty, and these sermons are no exception. They are a valuable resource for anyone interested in Christian mysticism, spirituality, or the Song of Songs.Book Details
