Song of Solomon 4:12 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

A garden — For order and beauty, for pleasant walks, and flowers, and fruits. Inclosed — Defended by the care of my providence: and reserved for my proper use. Shut up — To preserve it from all pollution, and to reserve it for the use of its owner, for which reason, springs were shut up in those countries where water was scarce and precious.

Song of Solomon 4:12

12 A garden inclosedb is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
