Text/8: 1-4
The Shulammite still tells his bridegroom At this point, it's like going to the field together. Going down the road is to go to her mother's house. The Shulammite wants her groom to be as friendly as his brother.
Then, I hope to receive a lesson from the groom and enjoy the joy I had previously desired.
1. The bride wants to know the groom more
If you were like a brother who sucked your mother's milk, verse 1
The bride continues to tell the groom
This is a continuation of chapter 7 Shinbe wants the groom to be like his brother Brother is not an acquaintance, but a relationship of blood and blood
This leads to deeper affection and suggests a hot relationship.
The relationship between husband and wife can be broken by human understanding, but the relationship between brother and sister is not like that. The bride wants the groom to be like her brother. This symbolizes the relationship between Christ and his bride. is not a relationship with another person, but a relationship by blood
The bride of Christ is not a stranger but a sister
2. The Bridegroom Is Still Outside
If I kissed you when I met you outside, no one would despise me.
When I met you outside, the groom was outside, not inside.
Christians must go out to meet Christ the Bridegroom
Meets the groom and wishes the bride kisses her
It is a scene that everyone recognizes, and it is a scene full of affection. Kissing is not just a simple gesture, it is a process of communicating with each other.
The process of welcoming and kissing the groom outside shows deep affection for each other.
Even in the same way, other people will not despise you if you are a bridegroom like your brother.
3. There is a will of the bride
I would have brought you out and brought you into my house, and I would have given you instruction; I would have made you drink with fragrant wine, pomegranate juice.
The mother's house is literally the bride's house.
But symbolically, it is a church. A place where the groom and the bride have a deeper spiritual relationship. At the mother's house, the bride tries to learn from her mother how to treat the groom, and the bride gives fragrant wine or pomegranate juice to the groom It has a symbolic meaning as well as an enemy.
The content of Song of Songs 7:11--8:2 is viewed as a prayer for the synagogue for the incarnation of the Word, or as a prayer for the incarnation, a future sign under the two covenants.
In the Targums, the mother house is seen as a temple on Mount Zion where Israel had a spiritual relationship with God before. Now is the time for Israel to go there and reunite with God
However, in general, the mother house here is seen as a symbol of the church. There, the mother teaches her daughter how to serve Christ. In the church, the saints are learning how to serve Christ, the bridegroom. On the other hand, Christians are constantly It means learning the Word. This is a privilege and a wonderful gift
Then the bride wants you to put your left hand on my head and hold me with your right hand.
This is not true, it is what she wants
Both left and right hand
Totally in love Christians enjoy the same joy as they walk with Christ This joy has been enjoyed before, and this time the content of love is revealed even more deeply.
It is the privilege of believers to share an unusual love with Christ.
This is such a joy and joy that those who do not know Christ cannot feel.
4. There is a request from the bride
I beseech you, women of Jerusalem, not to shake or wake me, until my beloved wills it.
This expression has already appeared twice, Song of Songs 2:7 and 3:5
It's happened three times so far.
Previously there were roe deer and wild deer, but not here. This has important meaning. Jewish scholars consider these verses to mean that they cannot claim the promised land without experiencing the trials and tribulations of the wilderness.
Do not shake and do not wake up presupposes the time to sleep. That is the time when you forget everything. It is the time to forget.
The bride asks me to refrain from doing that unless I want to.
It is the meaning of the work to become in God's providence.
Shaking and waking affects both internally and externally
It is the women of Jerusalem who are shaking. These are neither the bride nor the groom. Here, when the church and the groom are together, I imagine the people of the world shaking the church and waking it up. Being shaken by the world means the beginning of terrible suffering.
There are times when I ask the women of Jerusalem to be awake without shaking so that something like this does not happen.
