Default Howdy Djim, You can read th

Howdy Djim,

You can read the text at http://bibleholy.com/verse.php?book=22 (which is the King James version) or at http://online-bible-study.net/world-...ng-of-Solomon/ At the second link, you can also read various translations, with some being more modern. From what I've read of the original Hebrew (I am not a Hebrew scholar by any stretch of anyone's imagination), the translations don't really do justice to the original language's poetical structure. (The same is true for the book of Job.)

The book of The Song of Solomon (Song of Songs is the Hebrew name, and it's taken from the first verse) has eight chapters, and it is a narrative between Solomon and his wife (apparently the first of way too many), and a "chorus" which is the "Daughters of Jerusalem", Jerusalem being the capitol where the king's palace and the temple were located. A beautiful love song/story.

ttfn,
Sherry
