Song of Solomon: Love Strong as Death
Poetry celebrating love between a bride and her beloved. Read as a celebration of marriage and, by many, as a picture of God's love for his people.
Called 'the song of songs' (1:1), meaning the finest song. Jewish readers saw God and Israel; many Christians, Christ and the church; others read it first as human love.
