Union and Communion: Or Thoughts on the Song of Solomon (Annotated)

Union and Communion: or Thoughts on the Song of Solomon This is Hudson's Taylor's commentary on the Song of Songs. It is a wonderful meditation on Solomon's book.

In the commentary, Taylor shares how the book outlines the journey of all believers as they are sought out by the True Shepherd and Lover of their souls.

Excerpt from the Introduction:

In Solomon, the bridegroom king, as well as author of this poem, we have a type of our LORD, the true Prince of peace, in His coming reign. Then will be found not merely His bride, the Church, but also a willing people, His subjects, over whom He shall reign gloriously. Then distant potentates will bring their wealth, and will behold the glory of the enthroned KING, proving Him with hard questions, as once came the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon; and blessed will they be to whom this privilege is accorded. A brief glance will suffice them for a lifetime; but what shall be the royal dignity and blessedness of the risen and exalted bride! For ever with her LORD, for ever like her LORD, for ever conscious that His desire is toward her, she will share alike His heart and His throne. Can a study of the book which helps us to understand these mysteries of grace and love be other than most profitable?
