Historically, the Song of Solomon is a love song composed by Solomon to tell the story of the love between him and his gentile bride. Theologically, the book is a picture of the love relationship between Christ and his gentile bride, the Church. The first chapter is an example of how Solomon defines the relationship between him and his bride.
The book is known as the “song of songs” because Solomon believes it’s the greatest love song ever written. The song tells the story of this couple’s love and how it developed step by step from the moment they met. Within the song, we find the story of Christ’s love for His bride and how He defines the relationship with us.
Solomon represents Jesus. Both Solomon and Jesus are said to be “Shepherd Kings.”
Solomon’s Shulamite bride represents us. The Church is the bride of Christ!
Solomon is a picture of our Jewish bridegroom, while the Shulamite represents the Church—the gentile bride of Christ.
The book uses several word pictures to illustrate God’s design for sex and sexuality:
Vineyard
The Shulamite woman admitted to not guarding her own “vineyard,” meaning she had not kept her sexual purity.
Sun-darkened skin
The Shulamite carried the stigma of her sin on her skin, which was darkened from her work in the sun.
As a picture of Christ, Solomon redeemed his bride from her sin, her shame, and her pain. In Christ, we are cleansed completely of our sins.
It’s time to define the relationship! Jesus isn’t looking for a casual “dating” relationship—He’s looking for a bride! As the Bridegroom, Jesus has said “I DO” to you. It’s time for you to say “I DO” too!
