Concise Bible Dictionary
:
Name
introduced in
the
Song
of
Solomon
. It is a feminine noun traceable, like Solomon, to
Shalom
, “
peace
.” It is the virgins who
use
this
term. The union of the
bridegroom
and
bride
is such that she
can
be called by the same name. The “two armies” seen in the Shulamite doubtless refer to the union of
Judah
and
Israel
