The Song of Solomon
The Song of Solomon (a.k.a. Song of Songs, a.k.a. Canticle of Canticles) is unique among all books of the Holy Bible. Written by King Solomon and included in the Old Testament, it does not focus on God’s laws, relationship with mankind, or historical events, but rather on romantic love.
With its poetic and vivid imagery, it has been interpreted in many ways throughout the centuries, some seeing it as an erotic poem celebrating human sexual love, and others seeing it as an allegory for God’s love for his people, and yet others as the love between Christ and his bride (The Church). In modern Judaism, it is often read on Passover to celebrate the Israelites’ exodus from Egypt.
This pure reading of The Song of Solomon comes with scrolling text for an immersive and engaging experience, without music or drama. Just a pure reading of this unique poem amongst the pages of scripture, as written, for you to absorb, experience and study.
Enjoy, and above all, may your life be filled with peace!
