This is the twelfth of twenty classes/reflections given on the Song of Songs that is Solomon's, or the Canticle of Canticles, the beautiful and profound poem of the Old Covenant expressing the love between God and Israel, his people, his beloved child and cherished bride, and also, in the fullness of time, the love of God for his Church, the new Israel, and in her for each one of us, precious and beautiful in his eyes and called to intimacy with him.
The book that we revisit throughout and quote at length can be found here:
