| Bible Question: Why is Song of Songs, also called Song of Solomon? |
|
Bible Answer: Chapter 1 and verse 1 explains: Solomon wrote it. The alternate title stems from an emphasis on the latter portion of verse 1 rather than the first two words (Heb. lit. Song [of] the songs). It seems better to title the book after its author rather than a somewhat non-descript hebraism which means, roughly, "The choicest of all songs." Some also refer to the title as "Canticles" which refers to a song or a chant (from the Latin). |
