Song of Songs: Chapter One

2. Since the church is the bride of Christ, this book helps us see how much Jesus loves us.
3. Love is the most delightful thing we can experience.
4. The bride is dark because she was working class. Love is for all people.
5. The bride wants her husband's full attention and wants to trust him.
6. The husband cherishes his wife as a thing of beauty.
7. A house that God builds is strong and sturdy among a land of tents.
