The Song of Solomon has been subject to a broader range of interpretation probably than any other book in the Bible. While scholars openly disagree on much of the Song, all will agree that it’s a truly tough text. Wisdom Literature expert Doug O’Donnell offers this comprehensible guide to help uncoil its complexities and solve its riddles. Exploring the poetry, themes, and wisdom of this song from a Christocentric perspective, O’Donnell elucidates on the greatest subject of all time—love—showing how this “song of songs” is meant to teach us about biblical sexuality, human love, and God’s heart for his people.
