In this chapter we have, (1.) Christ's gracious acceptance of the invitation which his church had given him, and the kind visit which he made to her, Song of Solomon 5:1. (2.) The account which the spouse gives of her own folly in putting a slight upon her beloved, and the distress she was in by reason of his with-drawings, Song of Solomon 5:2-8. (3.) The inquiry of the daughters of Jerusalem concerning the amiable perfections of her beloved, Song of Solomon 5:9 and her particular answer to that inquiry, Song of Solomon 5:10-16. Unto you that believe, he is thus precious.
Before Christ 1014.
