This book with its over 400 footnotes connecting the bride to the church can be a study book. It can also be a gift book.
The Song of Songs written by King Solomon is a love story between a man and woman but overflows with the symbolism of Jesus Christ and his love for his Bride, his Church, his Ecclesia. Come along with me now in this expansion of the greatest love story in the universe. Look over their shoulder at their love letters to each other beginning with the time he finds her in the clutches of Satan and pays the terrible ransom to free her. He takes her to their Garden and they fall even more in love. Then on to the times she wanders away and he follows her to bring her back to him. Their story ends in Revelation with Ecclesia calling to him. He replies, "I am coming soon." That, indeed, is what our Lord is called out to us today. He is coming! Soon he is coming!
