Songs of Solomon 1:15
Watch The Context
Solomon Praises his bride, even though her claim she is "dark"
Twice in the whole chapter Solomon praises her with the expression of describing the beauty of his time - Pharaoh Chariot and Jewel
Solomon's reply consist of the shortest part in this passage - his word is small but means a lot
Obseve The Word
How beautiful - repeated twice, indicating emphasis
Your eyes is like doves - methaphorical expression of beauty, attraction
Reflect the Message:
Christ and the Church - Jesus looked at His bride on the same manner, a delight. She might be dark as well, result of the harsh treatment she received. But she is considered beauty in Christ's eyes simply because He loves her
My personal experience - how do i see my spouse? Do ilook at her with delight? Have i ever tell her how beautiful and lovely she is? Just like what Solomon did?
