Using unsurpassed poetic language, the Book of Song of Songs explores the wide range of emotions that lovers are meant to experience. This book is a powerful statement of love and devotion, which is relevant for modern society with its commercialization of sex and lack of constancy in relationships. The Book of Song of Songs is unique in its literary genre. She is both beautiful and mysterious. The key to the Song of Songs has long been lost. How can we understand it? Over the centuries, the book has given rise to a huge number of interpretations. Author Tom Gledhill suggests looking at the Book of Song of Songs primarily as a literary work that provides a poetic description of earthly love. The author of the book believes that beauty and intimate life should delight. They are not an end in themselves, but rather a path to another world, other dimensions that only occasionally and vaguely loom before us. God gave love to men and women as an image of His love for His people. Tom Gledhill offers to gently, without offending your feelings, guide you through the pages of this book and make reading the interpretation enjoyable. The author touches on many topics in his book: * the urgent desire for intimacy; * the fear of losing a lover; * the joy of intimate encounters; * the praise and enjoyment of the physical beauty; * the bitterness of separation; * the desire for public approval of one's love; * the area of human relations; * the relationship between God and His people. This book is a powerful statement of love and devotion, which is relevant for modern society with its commercialization of sex and the lack of constancy in relationships.

The book was first published in English by Inter-Varsity Press, Leicester, United Kingdom, which is a division of the International Fellowship of Christian Students (IFES), which unites groups of religious students from more than a hundred countries around the world. p>
