Song of Solomon 2:7 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

I charge you — This is spoken by the bride. By the roes — By the example of those creatures, which are pleasant and loving in their carriage towards one another. Nor awake — That you do not disturb nor offend him. 'Till — Never, as this word, until, in such phrases, is commonly used. For neither can sin ever please him, nor can the church bear it that Christ should ever be offended.
