Song of Solomon 4:5
Song of Solomon 4:5
Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
The reference to "two breasts like two young roes that are twins" evokes an image of innocence, purity, and gentle beauty. In the context of romance, this metaphor speaks to the tenderness and grace of the beloved, comparing them to young animals that are delicate and precious. The "lilies" further emphasize purity, as lilies are often associated with innocence and beauty. This verse, rich with imagery, suggests that romantic love is not just about physical attraction but also about nurturing and caring for one another. It speaks to the physical and emotional beauty of a relationship that is pure and life-giving. In this interpretation, the "young roes" represent grace and gentleness, qualities that enhance the relationship and make it a safe and loving space for both partners. The lilies symbolize peace and purity, reinforcing the notion that love in its truest form is both innocent and uplifting. The relationship between husband and wife, like the image of the young roes and lilies, should nurture and protect the purity of their bond, growing together in beauty and grace.
1 Samuel 16:7
But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
Song of Solomon 7:6
