Cantares 6:7

7 Como cachos de granada son tus sienes Entre tus guedejas.

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 tus ojos de delante de mí, Porque ellos me vencieron. Tu cabello es como manada de cabras, Que se muestran en Galaad.

6 Tus dientes, como manada de ovejas Que suben del lavadero, Todas con crías mellizas, Y estéril no hay entre ellas.

7 Como cachos de granada son tus sienes Entre tus guedejas.

8 Sesenta son las reinas, y ochenta las concubinas, Y las doncellas sin cuento:

9 Mas una es la paloma mía, la perfecta mía; Unica es á su madre, Escogida á la que la engendró. Viéronla las doncellas, y llamáronla bienaventurada; Las reinas y las concubinas, y la alabaron.
