• I have said that in its interpretation this book does not apply to the assembly. Nevertheless I have spoken of ourselves and of our hearts, and with reason; because, although the interpretation of the book presents Israel as its object, it is the heart and the feelings that are in question; so that morally it can be applied to us. But, then, the modification already noticed must be introduced. We have the full knowledge of accomplished redemption, we know that we are sitting in the heavenly places in Christ. Our conscience is forever purged. God will remember our sins and our iniquities no more. (“Song of Solomon 8” by J.N. Darby)
• The Bride. (Vs. 14). (“Canticle 6: The Triumph of Love” by H. Smith)
• The reply of the bride expresses the longing of her heart for the Bridegroom. His desire is gratified, He hears her voice as she says, "Haste, my beloved," words that fall upon His ear with great delight, for they tell Him that love has accomplished its work in the heart of the bride. A love fills her heart that will not be satisfied apart from Him, that can only be gratified by His return. (“Canticle 6: The Triumph of Love” by H. Smith)
• The loving spouse fervently desires her Lord's speedy return. She entreats that He may come without delay. The deep affections of her soul for Jesus are manifested by the intensity of her desire for His glorious appearing. (“Matthew 13” by F.B. Hole)
