Song of Solomon 1:10
Song of Solomon 1:10
Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.
Song of Solomon 1:10 describes a woman adorned with jewels, comparing her beauty to that of a woman whose cheeks are comely with rows of jewels and her neck adorned with chains of gold. The emphasis here is on the external and internal beauty that radiates from a woman who is cherished and loved. The jewels and gold symbolize the richness and value of her character, which reflects honor, grace, and dignity. But true beauty comes not from outward adornment alone, but from the inner qualities that make a person truly admirable. God’s design for beauty is holistic, where external beauty reflects an inner glory. As we focus on cultivating qualities like kindness, wisdom, and humility, we are adorned with a beauty that goes far beyond physical appearance. True beauty, the kind that lasts, is rooted in a heart that seeks to glorify God and honor others.
Psalms 45:2
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips.
Song of Solomon 6:10
Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners.
Proverbs 11:22
As a jewel of gold in a swine s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
Song of Solomon 7:6
How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights.
