Song of Solomon is rich, descriptive poetry. Many scholars believe it is about our love relationship with God. More recently, scholars have interpreted it as about romantic, marital love. The young man was Solomon. He and his young bride celebrated their passion. This little book contains a very descriptive story about marital love. It includes loneliness and dreams, hopes and fears. It adds in the occasional warning: "Don't awaken love before it's time." In other words, wait for the physical expression of love until after the commitment of a lifetime together in marriage.
