Unfortunately<br \/>\nwith Solomon I take this with a grain of salt considering how many wives and<br \/>\nconcubines he had. Who was he writing this to? The one he could not \u201chave\u201d or<br \/>\nsomeone who was not allowed per God\u2019s orders? Was this written to the daughter<br \/>\nof Pharaoh, the one who eventually led him astray to the point he wrote \u201cThe<br \/>\nLesser Key of Solomon\u201d? I note that this book is the foundation of conjuring<br \/>\ndemons in satanic cults. I have to wonder the mindset of him when he was<br \/>\nwriting this book.<\/p>\n<p>Verse 1:13 shows this to be a two way poem between the two<br \/>\nlovers:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>My love is\u00a0<i>close to my<br \/>\nheart,<br \/><\/i><br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0like a sachet of myrrh tucked<br \/>\nbetween my breasts.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if this was a joint collaboration or what Solomon<br \/>\nwished would be said. To the women who read this book is this something you<br \/>\nwould write your love? This is why I wonder if a woman wrote this or it was<br \/>\nwhat Solomon wished was written. Also, since we are getting a woman\u2019s opinion,<br \/>\nis this beautiful to your gender?<\/p>\n<p>This is where the English language gets hung up since this \u201clove\u201d<br \/>\nis often misconstrued with the \u201clove\u201d of a brother and \u201clove\u201d for God. We are told<br \/>\nto love one and other, to which The Youngblood\u2019s misconstrue into having sex with<br \/>\neveryone and somehow say \u201cit\u2019s Biblical\u201d. You see the things we need to watch<br \/>\nfor when reading an interpreted language. Hence why I love Bible Gateway and giving<br \/>\nus the ability to cross references almost all the translations available.<\/p>\n<p>Verse 2:2 is something that talks about the world:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>Him:<\/b>\u00a0Like a lily among<br \/>\nthorns, that is what she is;<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0my dear is\u00a0<i>a<br \/>\ncaptivating beauty<\/i>\u00a0among the young women.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We are all lilies among thorns these days in trying to<br \/>\nshow the love of Jesus. We need to focus on that since it becomes difficult to<br \/>\nmaintain ones faith when we are constantly being pricked and poked by the<br \/>\nthorns in this world. But have faith that God is here to protect us from these<br \/>\ndisturbances over our lives. Doesn\u2019t mean it will not hurt, but that we will be<br \/>\nable to understand the love of God.<\/p>\n<p>\ufffd<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Song of Songs 1 \u2013 2 \u00a0Verse 1:3 shows the general \u201clove poem\u201d of this book: The pleasant aroma of your fragrance\u00a0rises in the air; \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0your name is like\u00a0precious\u00a0perfume poured out: \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0This is why young women adore you. \u00a0 I do like this since it\u2019s much more eloquent than Jeff Foxworthy\u2019s \u201cI wanna beer and &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/2015\/02\/09\/love-or-lust\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Love Or Lust?&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=296"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=296"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=296"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/emailsfromdad.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=296"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
