Book Synopsis The Song of Songs and the Eros of God by : Edmée Kingsmill
Book excerpt: A close biblical study that re-examines the Hebrew text of the Song of Songs and considers its mystical meaning. Kingsmill seeks to demonstrate that a careful network of intertextual allusions has been deliberately used by the writer of the Song to refer metaphorically to the love of God for his people.
