Song. 7:1–9a This description of the woman’s beauty echoes that of 4:1–7 (see her description of the man in 5:10–16). They take romantic delight in each other’s physical appearance.
Song. 7:4 As in 4:4, the woman’s neck is likened to a tower made of precious ivory. The dignity and beauty of her neck inspires the comparison.
Song. 7:7 In ancient literature, a person of elegance was often compared to a palm tree.
Song. 7:10 The context indicates that desire here refers to sexual desire. The thought of the man desiring her gives the shepherdess pleasure.
Song. 7:13 It is possible that mandrakes (which sounds like my beloved in Hebrew) were seen as an aphrodisiac (see Gen. 30:14–16). Here, they appear to be seductive as they give forth fragrance.
