Among the trees—With a fruitage greater in variety, color, flavor, quantity and lasting quality.
Of the wood—Which run largely to leaves, professions.
So is my Beloved—“We love Him because He first loved us.”
Among the sons—The other sons of God with whom we are acquainted.
I sat down—“Come ye yourselves apart, and rest awhile.”
Under His shadow—His protecting love and care.
And His fruit—His perfect fruitage of love.
Was sweet to my taste.—“Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!”
2:4. He brought me—Guided me by His Word and providences.
To the banqueting house—To sup with Him and He with me.
