(17,505 posts)That is a sticking point for theologists. This dirty poem in the middle of the wretched book.
So it is interpreted as a love song to god..... not anything mortal.
Now you'll say "that's not true." but you will be wrong. I don't have to study it to know. It's kinda general knowledge since everybody wonders what it doing in there.... and gets that answer. For instance: I went to a concert by the excellent Stile Antico of medieval musical settings of the Song of Solomon, and even in the program notes they sited several theologians from several centuries that say it is to be interpreted as a love for god, not a woman.
You want good love making.... try Hinduism.
And everyone around you may be ignorant of other religions and philosophies, but I'm not. You don't have to be a scholar to know the Bible has little, if nothing, original in it.
But you're free to make up any crap you want. That's what theology is all about.
