Just Stop." by Josh Niemi: https://www.expositoryparenting.org/blog/2022/11/7
In this episode, we dive into the Song of Solomon—a striking collection of ancient Hebrew love poetry. Unlike any other book in Scripture, it boldly celebrates desire, beauty, and mutual delight, giving voice to both lovers and inviting us to see human intimacy as something sacred and good. We'll explore how its vivid garden imagery, themes of equality, and the refrain “Do not awaken love before its time” offer wisdom for relationships and intimacy today. Join us as we discover why this poetic book still speaks powerfully to questions of love, longing, and the sacredness of sexuality.

We repent of our foolishness by rejoicing in the goodness of Jesus our King
As the Song concludes, Solomon brings us to the theological point. His love for his bride sets her as a seal, meaning that she is his. As Solomon notes how powerful love is, he uses the divine name for the only time in the Song, allowing us to see that God's love for us pursues us even to death and brings us out of the grave. As the others wonder and ask concerning this love, the Church is given a concern for the gift of chastity and marriage. As the Song extols God's gift of marriage throughout, so God has given us the opportunity to rejoice in the love that Christ has for His Church. Rev. Andy Wright, pastor at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Topeka, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Song of Solomon 8:5-14.

The bride seeks her husband in the garden, and there he praises her beauty. His delight in his wife's beauty is a blessed gift of God within the context of holy matrimony, a delight that God still gives to husbands and wives today. The garden imagery throughout this section recalls the Garden of Eden in the beginning and the heavenly garden of the book of Revelation, pointing us to the love that Christ has for the Church and the Church's joyful response of love to Him.

The bride's sloth in answering her husband's knock provides a picture of the Church when she ignores the Lord's Word. Our heavenly Bridegroom uses His Law for the sake of love in order to draw His bride back to Himself. When others question the goodness of the Bridegroom, the Church recalls with joy who her Lord is, leading others to seek Him as well. The husband's joy in his bride in Song of Solomon shows the Lord's great delight over His Church. Rev. James Preus, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Ottumwa, IA, joins host Rev.

When two angels came to rescue Lot and bring judgment to Sodom & Gomorrah, the men of the city thought they were merely strangers passing through. Inflamed with sinful lust, the men of the city surrounded Lot's home and demanded the visiting strangers. Lot pleads with them to not act wickedly. Along with many other sexual sins, God forbids homosexuality. Homosexuality is an abomination, a failed purpose and it is forgivable. Whether your battle is with homosexuality or you're seeking hope for someone else, Jesus is able to make all who call upon Him a new creation.GENESIS 19:1-7LEVITICUS 18:6LEVITICUS 18:20-23ROMANS 1:26-28EPHESIANS 5:28-321 CORINTHIANS 6:9-11ADDITIONAL SCRIPTURE:PROVERBS 5HEBREWS 13:41 CORINTHIANS 7TITUS 3:3-6LEVITICUS 20:13JUDE 1:7MALACHI 2:14SONG OF SOLOMONGENESIS 2:25GENESIS 1:28GENESIS 4:1ACTS 22:16

The bridegroom continues to extol the beauty of his bride, calling her to his home and longing for her kinship. His words are borne out of thankfulness for God's gift of the marital union, rejoicing in the delight that God gives to a husband and wife in holy matrimony. Her love requites his love, and the marriage is joyfully consummated. Rev.

The bride is longingly looking for her bridegroom in the night and suddenly finds him to her great delight, in a scene very reminiscent of Mary Magdalene searching for Jesus after His resurrection. The wedding procession begins and includes imagery reminiscent of the LORD's protection of His people as they journeyed through the wilderness to the Promised Land. As the bridegroom looks upon his bride, he praises her beauty, recognizing his wife as God's gift to him in marriage. Rev.

Although the bride sees herself as one flower among many, Solomon views his beloved as the only one for him. He protects her from the dangers that their love faces as he sets a feast for her. The union that exists between the bride and the bridegroom is one in which they belong to each other and share all that they have. Through their relationship, we see a picture of the way Christ makes His Church lovely and bestows upon her all that is His. Rev.

The Song of Solomon was likely written by King Solomon early in his reign. Despite the way his wives multiplied later in life, Solomon's song speaks of the joy of marriage between one man and one woman. As the bride and the bridegroom speak to one another, they await with joy their coming marriage and praise the excellent qualities of each other. Throughout the Song, the love between Solomon and his bride provides a picture of the love that exists between Christ and His Church. Rev. David Boisclair, pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Song of Solomon 1:1-17.
