Song of Solomon 4:1

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Song of Solomon 4:1. Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair;

"Twice fair, first, through being washed in my blood, and next, through being sanctified by my Spirit!"

Song of Solomon 4:1. Thou hast doves’ eyes within thy locks:

Jesus prizes the love of his people which flashes forth from their eyes as they look upon him. The good works of his people, like the locks of hair which are the beauty and glory of the female form, are the beauty of the Church, and of every individual believer. It is a beautiful thing to have the eyes of faith glistening between the locks of our good works to the praise and glory of God.

Song of Solomon 4:1. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.

O my soul, see that thou dost have many such acceptable works of faith and labours of love!
