I [am] my beloved's, and my beloved [is] mine
Expressive of interest in Christ, and union to him, and of her
faith therein; which still continued, notwithstanding her
unbecoming behavior toward Christ, and her many infirmities, (
Song of Solomon 5:2
Song of Solomon 5:3
) . Aben Ezra connects the words with the preceding, "my beloved
is gone" but though he is, and I am left alone, I know I am his,
and he is mine; which throws a beauty upon the words, and
declares the excellency and strength of her faith; for herein
lies the glory and excellency of faith, to believe in an unseen
Christ: though it may be the Shechinah was with her, as the
Targum has it; or Christ had now appeared to her, and was found
by her, and therefore, like Thomas, says, "my Lord and my God";
he feedeth among the lilies; (See Gill on
Song of Solomon 2:16).
