the song of songs was written by solomon, the king of israel, about his love for and relationship with a shullamite maid (6.13) who was one of the caretakers in one of his vineyards(1.6). it is a picture of God's love for you...and for me...and for every human being...who He created to be in a deep love relationship with Himself. His love for every person He created and rules over is eternal, unchanging, passionate and real. our love for Him, depending on 'where we are with Him', may be none existent, cold, tepid, warm or passionate (He is my life! He is my all! He is the only One who makes life worth living! My only object in all i think, do and say is to show my love for Him, please Him and obey Him!).
