Song of Solomon 3:2

Song of Solomon 3:2

I will rise now, and go about the city, in the streets, and in the broad ways; I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.

The church, finding that the former methods she had taken were not attended with success, consults others, being sensible that she was wrong before, which she resolves to pursue without any more delay. In these words we have,

I. The church's resolution, which consists of three parts: 1st, To "rise now," immediately. 2dly, To "go about the city." 3dly, To seek Christ in the streets and broad ways" thereof.

II. Her performance of this resolution; "I sought him."

III. Her success in it, which was as before; "but I found him not."
