Song of Solomon 4:3. Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet,
And well they may be, for what is there for the believer to talk about but the scarlet of the Saviour’s blood, that matchless bath in which we are washed whiter than snow? My mouth, be thou filled with the praises of the Lord, that my lips may be like a thread of scarlet!
Song of Solomon 4:3. And thy speech is comely:
There is always a comeliness in that conversation which is full of Christ so, beloved, let your conversation ever be such as becometh the gospel of Christ; but that cannot be the case unless there is much of Christ in it.
Song of Solomon 4:3. Thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within thy locks.
Those parts of us with which we think upon God’s Word should ever be surrounded by good works. Doctrines in the head, without holiness in the life, are of no service, but when the temples are covered with the locks of righteousness, then are they like a piece of a pomegranate, acceptable both to God and men.
