You are beautiful — You are too

Scripture Text: Song of Solomon  1:15 – 17     (22a, page 178)

verse 15

Behold, you are beautiful my darling companion.

Behold, you are beautiful your eyes are doves.

verses 16 -17

Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved.

Indeed, you are delightful, and our resting place is in the flourishing branches

The beams of our houses are cedars, our rafters cypresses.

Below are some selections from other versions

verse16

Our bed is lush with foliage; HCSB

verse 16

our couch [is] green YLT

verse 16

also our bed is green KJV

verse 16

and our resting place is in the flourishing branches GLK

verse 16

our couch is luxuriously green FRU

verse 16

as we lie here on the grass,

verse 17

shaded by cedar trees and spreading firs. NLT

They are up in the hills, flirting with each other.  Notice the bed isn’t a bed in a house, but they are making references about their surroundings and comparing them to a roof and a bed.  All of this fits with a couple feeling out where the other person stands, and doing it in a flirting tone.  This way if you say too much you can back off a little.

Why I Am Doing This

I have information that is valuable for people who are making decisions about sex, love, romance, marriage and relationships. Admittedly, sharing on these topics is not something I have been eager to do. But it is the right thing to do, so here I go jumping in with both feet. More about us.
