The following words from Songs of Solomon, tells about the king’s love for his woman and how beautiful she is to her friends and the king.
The king compares her to fine horses and precious jewels and vows to provide her the finest earrings that he can bring.
Friends
8 If you do not know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the sheep
and graze your young goats
by the tents of the shepherds.
He
9 I liken you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariot horses.
10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels.
11 We will make you earrings of gold, studded with silver.
Will this promise help the maiden’s love for the king to grow strong?
Will the king grow weary in time and tell her to return to where she once belonged?
My dear friends, these things about life we really do not know.
It is our sincere hope that this love will continue to prosper and grow…
