The Song Of Songs: The Soul & The Divin

Over the centuries, both Jewish and Christian mystics have agreed that the Song should be understood allegorically, not literally – in keeping with the widespread use of metaphor, parable, and story among the poets and mystics of the ancient Middle East. From the perspective of a universal spirituality, John Davidson sheds light on many of the Song’s obscure passages, uncovering the artistry of its unknown poet. The commentary is illuminated by passages from biblical texts and other spiritual literature.
