Chapter 774 of 1261

Song of Solomon 8:9

If she be a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she be a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar.

These are the words of Christ, in answer to the solicitous concern of the old Jewish church for her little sister, the Gentile; declaring what should be done for her on such and such considerations.

I. If, or "seeing she is a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver."

II. "And if she be a door, we will in close her with boards of cedar:" all which is expressive of what strength and ornament should be added to her, and what grace and glory should be conferred upon her.
