Description:

The Song of Solomon (aka Song of Songs or Canticles) is one of the most puzzling books in Scripture. Is it an allegory or an erotic love poem? What is its place in Holy Scripture?
The purpose of this unique collection is to bring together some of the most well-known and loved commentaries of all time on the Song of Solomon. While the habit of many today would be to see the Song as a divinely inspired sex-manual, the classic writers viewed it as the story of God’s passionate love for his people. While it may not answer all your questions regarding the Song, our prayer is that this collection will inspire your hearts and fill you with a greater passion for God than you’ve known before!
This collection is formatted with an Active Table-of-Contents and includes the full texts of:
1. THE EXPOSITORS BIBLE COMMENTARY on the Song of Solomon (literal interpretation)
