Song of Solomon Chapter 6

Song of Solomon 6:1
6:1 Where is thy beloved gone, {k} O thou fairest among women?
    where is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with
    thee.

    (k) Hearing of the excellency of Christ, the faithful desire
        to know how to find him.

Song of Solomon 6:2
6:2 My beloved is gone down into his {a} garden, to the beds of
    spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

    (a) That is, is conversant here in earth among men.

Song of Solomon 6:4
6:4 Thou [art] beautiful, O my love, as {b} Tirzah, comely as
    Jerusalem, terrible as [an army] with banners.

    (b) Which was a fair and strong city, 1 Kings 14:17.

Song of Solomon 6:5
6:5 {c} Turn away thy eyes from me, for they have overcome me:
    thy hair [is] as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.

    (c) This declares the exceeding love of Christ toward his
        Church.

Song of Solomon 6:8
6:8 There are {d} sixty queens, and eighty concubines, and
    virgins without number.

    (d) Meaning that the gifts are infinite which Christ gives
        to his Church: or that his faithful are many in number.

Song of Solomon 6:10
6:10 {e} Who [is] she [that] looketh forth as the morning, fair
     as the moon, clear as the sun, [and] terrible as [an army]
     with banners?

     (e) He shows that the beginning of the Church was small,
         but that it grew up to a great multitude.

Song of Solomon 6:11
6:11 I went down into the {f} garden of nuts to see the fruits
     of the valley, [and] to see whether the vine flourished,
     [and] the pomegranates budded.

     (f) He went down into the synagogue to see what fruits came
         from the law, and the prophets.

Song of Solomon 6:12
6:12 {g} Before I was aware, my soul made me {h} [like] the
     chariots of Amminadib.

     (g) I found nothing but rebellion.
     (h) Or, Set me on the chariots of my willing people.

Song of Solomon 6:13
6:13 Return, return, O {i} Shulamite; return, return, that we
     may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As
     it were the company of two armies.

     (i) O ye people of Jerusalem, for Jerusalem was called
         Shalem which signifies peace.
