Song of Solomon 4:8 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Come with me Unto the mountain of myrrh, mentioned Song of Solomon 4:6. From Lebanon, my spouse This is the first time that Christ gives her this name, which he does both to oblige and encourage her to go with him. Look from the top of Amana To the place to which I invite thee to go, which from those high mountains thou mayest easily behold. From the mountains of the leopards From these or other mountains, which are inhabited by lions and leopards. This seems to be added as an argument to move the spouse to go with him, because the places where now she was were not only barren, but also dangerous.

Song of Solomon 4:8

8 Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.
