John Gill Bible Commentary

Introduction

INTRODUCTION TO SONG OF SOLOMON 7 In this chapter Christ gives a fresh commendation of the beauty of his church, in a different order and method than before; beginning with her "feet", and so rising upwards to the "hair" of her head, and the roof of her mouth, Sol 7:1; And then the church asserts her interest in him, and his desire towards her, Sol 7:10; and invites him to go with her into the fields, villages, and vineyards, and offers various reasons, by which she urges him to comply with her invitation, Sol 7:11.
