"Oh, that he would kiss me with kisses of his mouth!" (Song 1:1)
Why are these words in the Bible? This question has been answered in various ways throughout the ages, resulting in a greater diversity of interpretations than perhaps any other biblical book. Edited by Joel C. Elowsky and Paul R. Raabe, Interpreting the Song of Songs provides soundings from different eras and key interpreters--early Judaism, Origen, Augustine, the medieval era, Martin Luther, and modern and postmodern approaches. The interpretive history of the Song is a captivating study in itself. By listening to the past, we can discern how the Song sings today.
