Song. 6:1 In 5:6 the woman lamented that her beloved “had turned and gone.” Now the chorus asks her, where has your beloved gone, and where has he turned?
Song. 6:2 garden. See note on 4:12. The garden is his, for she has committed herself to him.
Song. 6:3 The lovers gladly declare that they have given themselves to each other.
Song. 6:4–8:4 The Lovers Yearn for Each Other Again. The dream of 3:1–6:3 is over. The man and woman now offer words of praise to each other.
Song. 6:4 awesome as an army with banners. Not only is she beautiful, she inspires the most profound respect.
Song. 6:5 The woman’s glances overwhelm the man (see 4:9).
Song. 6:8–9 Notice how the numbers increase from sixty to eighty to without number. The woman is without equal. All women, even royal women, praise her.
Song. 6:10 Dawn, moon, and sun all reflect the woman’s radiant beauty.
Song. 6:13 The chorus picks up on the idea of “looking” (v. 11). As she had gone down to the orchard to look, so they want her to return, that they might look upon her. Shulammite likely refers to the woman’s origin. The nature of the dance before two armies is unknown. The beloved intervenes and denies their request.
