Cantares 6:7 Meaning and Commentary

Song of Solomon 6:7

As a piece of a pomegranate [are] thy temples within thy
locks.
] The same descriptions are given in ( Song of Solomon 4:3 ) ; (See Gill on Song of Solomon 4:3); and these are repeated, to show the reality of the church's beauty, and for the sake of confirmation; and that it still continued the same, notwithstanding her failings and infirmities; and that Christ had the same esteem of her, and love to her, he ever had. That part of the description, respecting the church's lips and speech, in ( Song of Solomon 4:3 ) ; is here omitted, though added at the end of ( Song of Solomon 6:6 ) ; by the Septuagint; but is not in the Hebrew copies, nor taken notice of in the Targum; yea, the Masorah, on ( Song of Solomon 4:2 ) , remarks some words as only used in that place, and therefore could not be repeated here in the copies then in use.

Cantares 6:7 In-Context

5 Aparta de mí la mirada,que tus ojos me tienen fascinado.Tus cabellos son como los rebaños de cabrasque retozan en Galaad.

6 Tus dientes son como rebaños de cabritasrecién salidas del baño.Cada una de ellas tiene su pareja,ninguna de ellas marcha sola.

7 Tus mejillas, tras el velo,parecen dos mitades de granadas.

8 Pueden ser sesenta las reinas,ochenta las concubinase innumerables las vírgenes,

9 pero una sola es mi palomita preciosa,la hija consentida de su madre,la favorita de quien le dio la vida.Las mujeres la ven y la bendicen;las reinas y las concubinas la alaban.
