Spiritually, the bride or beloved is led ( :- ) first into the King's chambers, thence is drawn after Him in answer to her prayer; is next received on a grassy couch under a cedar kiosk; and at last in a "banqueting hall," such as, JOSEPHUS says, Solomon had in his palace, "wherein all the vessels were of gold" ( Antiquities, 8:5,2).

His love conquered us to Himself; this banner rallies round us the forces of Omnipotence, as our protection; it marks to what country we belong, heaven, the abode of love, and in what we most glory, the cross of Jesus Christ, through which we triumph ( Romans 8:37 ; 1 Corinthians 15:57 ; Revelation 3:21 ). Compare with " over me," " underneath are the everlasting arms" ( Revelation 3:21- : ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-5" class="com-number"
