SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:11

Salid, oh doncellas de Sion, y ved al rey Salomón con la corona con que le coronó su madre el día de su desposorio, y el día del gozo de su corazón.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Song of Solomon 3:11

Verse 11. Go forth, O ye
daughters of Zion - This is the exhortation of the companions of the bride to the females of the city to examine the superb appearance of the bridegroom, and especially the nuptial crown, which appears to have been made by Bathsheba, who it is supposed might have lived till the time of Solomon's marriage with the daughter of Pharaoh. It is conjectured that the prophet refers to a nuptial crown, Isaiah lxi. 10. But a crown, both on the bride and bridegroom, was common among most people on such occasions. The nuptial crown among the Greeks and Romans was only a chaplet or wreath of flowers.

In the day of the gladness of his heart. - The day in which all his wishes were crowned, by being united to that female whom beyond all others he loved.

Here the third day is supposed to end.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 11. Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion , etc.] The same with the daughters of Jerusalem; the reason of the variation is, because Christ, here so gloriously described, is King of Zion, and they his subjects; these the church observing, being intent on looking at the bed and chariot she had described, calls them from those objects to look at a more glorious one; to whom Solomon in all his glory, on his coronation or marriage day, to which the allusion is, was not equal; wherefore she invites them to “go forth” and look at him, as people are forward to go out of their houses to see a crowned king pass along the streets, especially on his coronation day; and men never see any glory and excellency in Christ, until they go out of themselves, and look off of every other object to him alone; and behold King Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals ; alluding to a custom with the Jews and other nations f202 , to put nuptial crowns on the heads Of married persons, both men and women, on the marriage day: Christ is undoubtedly here meant by Solomon, who is King of Zion, King of saints; (see Gill on “ Song of Solomon 3:7”); by whose mother is meant either the church, the Jerusalem above, the mother of us all, of Christ mystical; or else every believer, who is not only his brother and sister, but his mother, ( Matthew 12:50); and this may refer to the time when Christ is first made known unto and held by a sensible sinner, in the glory of his person, and the fulness of his grace, as sitting and riding in the chariot of the everlasting Gospel; when such honour him, and crown him by venturing on him, and believing in him; for every act of faith on Christ is putting the crown upon his head; and every submission to his ordinances is an acknowledging him King of saints; and every ascription of salvation to him and his grace by any, is casting their crowns at his and setting one on his head; and such a time is the time of his open espousals to them, when such consent to be his for ever, and give up their whole selves to him; there was a secret espousal of all the elect to Christ, upon the Father’s grant of them to him in eternity; and there is an open espousal of them to him personally, at their conversion under the ministry of the word, when they are espoused as chaste virgins to Christ; at which time there is a large breaking forth of Christ’s love to them, and of theirs to him: hence it is called “the love of their espousals”; (see 2 Corinthians 11:2 Jeremiah 2:2); and here the day of the gladness of his heart ; when Christ gladly and cheerfully receives such souls into his embraces, and rejoices over them as the bridegroom over the bride: now the church would have the daughters of “Jerusalem behold”, look at this glorious person with an eye of faith and love, with attention and admiration; (see Zechariah 9:9); there being such astonishing, incomparable, and transcendent excellencies in him, which require such looks as these;

Matthew Henry Commentary

The
trials of the church by the withdrawing of Christ. (Song 3:1-5) The excellences of the church, The care of Christ for her. (Song 3:6-11)

Song 3:1-5 It was hard to the Old Testament church to find Christ in the ceremonial law; the watchmen of that church gave little assistanc to those who sought after him. The night is a time of coldness darkness, and drowsiness, and of dim apprehensions concerning spiritual things. At first, when uneasy, some feeble efforts are made to obtai the comfort of communion with Christ. This proves in vain; the believe is then roused to increased diligence. The streets and broad-ways see to imply the means of grace in which the Lord is to be sought Application is made to those who watch for men's souls. Immediat satisfaction is not found. We must not rest in any means, but by fait apply directly to Christ. The holding of Christ, and not letting his go, denotes earnest cleaving to him. What prevails is a humble, arden suing by prayer, with a lively exercise of faith on his promises. S long as the faith of believers keeps hold of Christ, he will not be offended at their earnest asking, yea, he is well pleased with it. The believer desires to make others acquainted with his Saviour. Whereve we find Christ, we must take him home with us to our houses, especiall to our hearts; and we should call upon ourselves and each other, to beware of grieving our holy Comforter, and provoking the departure of the Beloved.

Song 3:6-11 A wilderness is an emblem of the world; the believer come out of it when he is delivered from the love of its sinful pleasure and pursuits, and refuses to comply with its customs and fashions, to seek happiness in communion with the Saviour. A poor soul shall com up, at last, under the conduct of the Comforter; like a cloud of incense ascending from the altar, or the smoke of the burnt-offerings This signifies pious and devout affections, and the mounting of the soul heaven-ward. The believer is filled with the graces of God' Spirit; his devotions now are very lively. These graces and comfort are from the heavenly Canaan. He, who is the Peace of his people, the King of the heavenly Zion, has provided for the safe conveyance of his redeemed through the wilderness of this world. The bed, or palanquin was contrived for rest and easy conveyance, but its beauty an magnificence showed the quality of its owner. The church is wel guarded; more are with her than are against her: believers, when the repose in Christ, and with him, though they have their fears in the night, are yet safe. The chariot here denotes the covenant of redemption, the way of our salvation. This is that work of Christ which makes him loved and admired in the eyes of believers. It is framed and contrived, both for the glory of Christ, and for the comfor of believers; it is well ordered in all things and sure. The blood of the covenant, that rich purple, is the cover of this chariot, by whic believers are sheltered from the wind and storms of Divine wrath, an the troubles of this world; but the midst of it is that love of Chris which passes knowledge, this is for believers to repose upon. Christ in his gospel, manifests himself. Take special notice of his crown Applying this to Christ, it speaks the honour put upon him, and his power and dominion __________________________________________________________________
