Song of Songs 1:2-4

In Song of Songs 1:2-4, the Bride receives her initial revelation of the bridgroom.

Song of Songs 1:2-4 NASB:

The kiss here is a type and shadow of Christ breathing His life into us. This can be seen in theGarden of Eden when God breathede life into Adam and Adam became a living soul. We will also receive His kiss during His second coming when we are resurrected out of the grave. It bears a resemblance to a fairy tale when the prince wakes up the princess by kissing her. In fact, that particular trope stems from God speaking inside mankind. The bride goes on to say that she extols his love more than wine. The Hebrew word for Love, Dowd, is better translated as romantic love or sexual intimacy. It is different from the Hebrew word Ahava. The wine refers to anything the world has to offer. Intimacy with Christ is greater than anything the world has to offer.
