Song of Solomon 4:9
Song of Solomon 4:9
Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister; my spouse: thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck.
Christ having invited his church to go along with him, here discovers the reason of it, because his heart was ravished with her; he had such an affection for her, that he could not bear to be at a distance from her. In these words, consider,
I. The titles given to her; "my sister, my spouse."
II. What he declares to her; "thou hast ravished my heart;" which expression is doubled.
