Reflection Questions
1. What resonated with you the most from Song of Solomon 1:9-2:7? Why?
2. How do we see Jesus in this passage? (Aka: What is the connection to the gospel?)
TAKE HOME w/ YOUR SPOUSE or, if time allows
3. Based on 1:9-11, what does this tell us about the importance of verbal affirmation and appreciation in marriage? How can we practically express admiration for our spouse's character and appearance?
4. In verses 12-14, the Shulammite describes Solomon as "a sachet of myrrh" and "a cluster of henna blossoms." What do these images suggest about the impact of her beloved on her? How does this relate to the idea of emotional and spiritual intimacy in marriage?
5. "Behold, You Are Beautiful" in verse 15: This phrase is repeated by both Solomon and the Shulammite. Why is mutual affirmation so powerful in a relationship? How does this contrast with relationships where praise is one-sided or absent?
6. What does it mean to be a "lily among thorns" (verses 2:1-2) in the context of marriage and the world around us? How can Christian marriages stand out in a culture that often devalues commitment and intimacy?
7. "His Banner Over Me Is Love": This is a powerful image in verses 3-7. What does it mean to be "covered" by love? How does this relate to the idea of God's love for us, and how should that inform our love for each other?
