A Visit With Jesus: Bible Quizzes

Song of Songs

The Song of Songs, also called the Song of Solomon, is a biblical poem, one of the five scrolls in the Ketuvim ("writings"), the last section of the Tanakh. Unlike other books in the Hebrew Bible, it is erotic poetry; lovers express passionate desire, exchange compliments, and invite one another to enjoy.

Most scholars view the Song of Songs as erotic poetry celebrating human love rather than a divine metaphor.
