1 | normal insecurities? | Song 1:6 | truthckr2 | 209521 | ||
This may sound like a stupd question but it's one that has caused a grate deal a debate with one of my friends. In regards to chapter 1:6 of the song of songs. Was the shulamite selfish and self focused when she was insecure of how she looked in the eyes of solomon? I am trying to help a married couple in understanding the normal side of this and the sinful side and how they need to relate to eachother in this regard. Any feedback would be greatly appriciated. |

2 | normal insecurities? | Song 1:6 | Hank | 209522 | ||
Dear truthckr2, thanks for your question and welcome. The Shulammite maiden in Song 1:6 was self-conscious of her appearance obviously, but that is not the same thing as being selfish or self-centered. Her step-brothers had made her caretaker of the vineyards, and her skin was burned and darkened by exposure to the sun. She may have been shy, coy, or even a bit coquettish in a winsome sort of way, but selfish? No, that doesn't seem quite the fitting word to describe this maiden. She explains that because of her duties in her relatives' vineyard, she has not taken care of her own vineyard, by which she means her personal appearance. ..... I'm not sure what you mean when you speak of the "normal side of this and the evil side," so I'm unable to respond to that segment of your question. --Hank | ||||||
