The Song of Solomon has been subject to a broader range of interpretation probably than any other book in the Bible. While scholars openly disagree on much of the Song, all will agree that it’s a truly tough text. Wisdom Literature expert Doug O’Donnell offers this comprehensible guide to help uncoil its complexities and solve its riddles. Exploring the poetry, themes, and wisdom of this song from a Christocentric perspective, O’Donnell elucidates on the greatest subject of all time—love—showing how this “song of songs” is meant to teach us about biblical sexuality, human love, and God’s heart for his people.

Distinctives:

• Skilled exposition from a seasoned pastor known for his expertise in Wisdom Literature
• Part of the popular Preaching the Word series, written by pastors for pastors, as well as for all who teach or study God’s Word
• Featured in ads to pastors and marketed alongside the series which has recently been freshly redesigned

Endorsement:

“It is a pleasure to commend this series of homiletical commentaries. They fill an enormous vacuum that exists between the practical needs of the pastor/teacher and the critical exegetical depth of most commentaries.”
