Song of Solomon 8:11
Baal - hamon - A place not far from Jerusalem. A thousand - Whereby he signifies both the vast extent of the vineyard which required so many keepers, and its singular fertility.
9 If she is a wall,
We will build upon her
A battlement of silver;
And if she is a door,
We will enclose her
With boards of cedar.
We will build upon her
A battlement of silver;
And if she is a door,
We will enclose her
With boards of cedar.
The Shulamite
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon;
aHe leased the vineyard to keepers;
Everyone was to bring for its fruit
A thousand silver coins.
aHe leased the vineyard to keepers;
Everyone was to bring for its fruit
A thousand silver coins.
(To Solomon)
12 My own vineyard is before me.
You, O Solomon, may have a thousand,
And those who tend its fruit two hundred.
You, O Solomon, may have a thousand,
And those who tend its fruit two hundred.
The Beloved
