Song of Solomon 3-4: God's Plan for Love and Intimacy
Transcript
Today’s Bible Translation
Bible translation used in today’s episode: Ch. 5 ERV, Ch. 6 CEV
Podcast Introduction
It’s Poetry Thursday. We’ll read Song of Solomon chapters 3-4. I’m calling this episode “God’s Plan for Love and Intimacy.“

Summary
Song of Solomon chapters 3 and 4 portray a wedding ceremony and the wedding night. The main message is that God designed attraction, courtship, affection, marriage, and intimacy to be shared in that order between a husband and wife. Despite what our culture says, God’s plan is the best. If we’ve strayed, seeking God’s forgiveness is the way back. Confessing our sins to Him leads to forgiveness, as He erases our sins and urges us, like Jesus did, to “Go and sin no more.”

As mentioned in my comments, here is a good list of commentaries on Song of Solomon.

If a culture says it’s okay, does that mean that God’s plan is outdated, inconsequential or no longer valid?
