• The Spirit of prophecy then exhibits the Bridegroom coming up out of the wilderness with His bride, where (like Moses) He had been with her in spirit. (“Song of Solomon 3” by J.N. Darby)

• (Ch. 3:6). The Daughters of Jerusalem. (“Canticle 3: The Communion of Love” by H. Smith)

• In this canticle {3:6-5:1} we no longer see the bride resting upon her bed, calling forth the grace of the Bridegroom to arouse her flagging energies and awaken her waning love. She is rather presented as enjoying the communion of love and coming up from the wilderness on her way to share the glories of the King. (“Canticle 3: The Communion of Love” by H. Smith)

• Strictly the scene presents a beautiful picture of Israel, of whom the Lord could say, "I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness," and again, "I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought." (“Canticle 3: The Communion of Love” by H. Smith)

• Moreover, the very privations become the occasion of calling forth a sweet odor, just as the path of the bride is marked by the smoke of ascending incense, and perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, and with all powders of the merchant. There is spiritual significance in the fact that the powders of the merchant are compounded from plants gathered in the wilderness. The trials, the testings, and the privations of our wilderness journey, when taken from the hand of God, become the occasion of developing the graces of Christ, which ascend as "an odor of a sweet smell" even now. (“Canticle 3: The Communion of Love” by H. Smith)
