Song of Solomon 2:1-17
2:1-2 The Shulamite woman continued to feel very different from the ladies of society.
2:3 Her beloved was different also, his love was natural and sweet. Their time together was simple and humble.
2:4-7 He was kind and gentle and supportive to her. The Shulamite's request for her love not to be stirred up or awakened is a reference to waiting patiently for Jesus' return.
2:8-14 The Shulamite awaits the voice of her beloved, to call her into a time of light and harvest. We also wait for the voice of God to call us forth into the next stage of His eternal plans.
2:15 As she grew up in the wilderness, she understood the importance of "catching out" the deceivers and the destroyers.
2:16 We belong to our Shepherd Jesus and He has proclaimed Himself ours.
2:17 Spirit and secular world remain separate until the Day of the Lord breaks.
