• We associate with " Lebanon," as a type, our highest thoughts of earthly exaltation. But there, that which is so fascinating to the outward eye, so charming to the senses, shelters the devouring lion and the cruel leopard. Its very luxuriance and beauty afford a covert for the enemy. The traveler, delighted beyond measure with the gorgeous scenery of Lebanon and Hermon, may be enticed to linger until it be too late to get safely to the plain. His danger thereby would be imminent, unless he had a good and faithful guide. (“Song of Solomon 4” by A. Miller)
• What ineffable grace there is in the word " Come! " The whole sentence breathes the tenderest sympathies, the deepest solicitudes of His heart. How much sweeter to the ear is " Come," than " Go." There is fellowship in the one, there is separation in the other. (“Song of Solomon 4” by A. Miller)
• Earth has no fairer scenes than Lebanon and Amanah, Shenir and Hermon; but hidden dangers lurk beneath earth's brightest prospects. The lion has his den, and the leopards roam, in the excellent places of the earth. The well-watered plain of Jordan may appear fair as the garden of the Lord, but Sodom and Gomorrah are there. (“Canticle 3: The Communion of Love” by H. Smith)
• And, you know, the mountain is the place of privilege, the place of beauty, of worldly grandeur and glory, but it is also the place of danger. The leopard’s lair is there and the lion’s den, and as he beholds her there alone, he cries, “Come with me from Lebanon... from the lions’ dens, from the mountains of the leopards.” Our blessed Lord wants the companionship of His redeemed people. How sweet those words, “Come with Me!” He never calls His people from anything, either the beautiful things of the world or the dangerous things (and after all, the beautiful is often the most dangerous), simply to take a path alone, but it is always, “Come with Me.” (“Song of Solomon 4:1-11” by H.A. Ironside)
