Song of Solomon

by Paige Patterson

In a world awash with the debris of broken homes, crushed spirits, and fractured dreams, God s people need the message of the Song of Solomon as never before. First written 30 years ago, these words that open this volume are perhaps more true now than then. Paige Patterson examines this eight-chapter book verse-by-verse, attempting to pierce through the veil of misinterpretations in order to expose the truths that God has in store for readers of this text, characterized by one commentator as the most obscure book in the Old Testament. In so doing, Patterson reveals the surprising clarity and relevance of this centuries-old text to modern-day Christians, making this a valuable resource for pastors and laypersons alike.

The author is very good at explaining the various parts (both clear and difficult) of this seldom-read Old Testament book. If you have read it, you are aware of some adult content, making this book perhaps unsuitable for those under 18. Part of the Everyman's Bible Commentary series.

[Joan Haughton · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Bible book of Song of Solomon, is one of love, courtship, marriage and consummation. Wonderful words of love spoken centuries ago are still so poignant even in our time. Love exceeds all things. Bless the name of Jesus!
