7:4. Thy neck—Willingness to bear burdens.
Is as a tower of ivory—Purity and strength.
Thine eyes—Wisdom, Heaven-sent.
Like the fishpools in Heshbon—Pure, deep.
By the gate of Bath-Rabbim—Calm and strong.
Thy nose—Scent for spiritual food.
Is as the tower of Lebanon—Lofty, high, noble.
Which looketh toward Damascus—“Visions of beauty rise before us.” “He that lacketh these things is blind and can not see afar off.”
7:5. Thine head upon thee—Thy reasoning faculties.
Is like Carmel—(Crimson.) “Come now and let us reason together, saith the Lord; though your sins be as scarlet they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson they shall be as wool.”
