• The canticle closes, like the first, with the earnest appeal to the daughters of Jerusalem, that nothing should be allowed to disturb the enjoyment of love between the Bridegroom and the bride. (“Canticle 2: The Awakening of Love” by H. Smith)
• This charge was considered in our meditations on chapter 2:7. The same charge occurs in chapter 8:4. Each time it is given the coming of the Lord immediately follows. In chapter 2:7, it is the revelation of Himself. "The voice of my beloved, behold he cometh." It is Himself, personally, that is here thought of. In chapter 3:11, it is the Messiah coming in royal procession, as the true Solomon, crowned King of Israel by the heart of the nation. "Behold King Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother [Israel] crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart." In chapter 8:4, the bride is seen leaving the wilderness as united to Him. This is marked progress. "Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved?" This is all that the heart desires. It is the consummation of all happiness. To be with Him-one with Him-and like Him, is the full, perfect, and eternal blessedness of all His people. (“Song of Solomon 3” by A. Miller)
