Song of Solomon 8

Chapter 8

She is still speaking.  Wishing she could be more familiar with him.  She repeats the phrases from the dream about bringing him into her mother's house, and also the phrase about no stirring up or awakening love until it pleases.  This is the third time this phrase shows up.

vs 5 I don't understand.

Next section:  Love, true love, is priceless, valued above all things.


Conclusion:  No idea.  Seems random.  MSB says a wall is moral purity, a door is an openness to immorality.  Her brothers speak "Oh little sister..." to say they kept her pure when she was young.  In vs 10, she says she stayed pure, and was a virgin on her wedding night.  This started them off well in marriage.  He had peace, no worries about her purity.  The rest...even MSB wasn't sure.
