Song of Solomon 2:16
Song of Solomon 2:16
My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.
Song of Solomon 2:16 speaks of the deep intimacy between the lover and the beloved: "My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies." This verse speaks to the beauty of mutual love and devotion. In the context of the relationship between Christ and the Church, this reflects the deep bond of love that Christians share with their Savior. The lilies symbolize purity and beauty, and the feeding among them represents the nourishment and sustenance found in Christ. This verse calls us to deepen our devotion to God, understanding that in our love for Him, we are nourished and made whole. Just as the lover and the beloved are intimately connected, so too are we called to walk in close communion with Christ, finding our fulfillment in His love and care.

Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin.
