Song of Songs 4:2
_ _ even shorn — the Hebrew is translated (1 Kings 6:25), “of one size”; so the point of comparison to teeth is their symmetry of form; as in “came up from the washing,” the spotless whiteness; and in “twins,” the exact correspondence of the upper and lower teeth: and in “none barren,” none wanting, none without its fellow. Faith is the tooth with which we eat the living bread (John 6:35, John 6:54). Contrast the teeth of sinners (Psalms 57:4; Proverbs 30:14); also their end (Psalms 3:7; Matthew 25:30). Faith leads the flock to the washing (Zechariah 13:1; 1 Corinthians 6:11; Titus 3:5).
_ _ none ... barren — (2 Peter 1:8). He who is begotten of God begets instrumentally other sons of God. |
Song of Songs 4:2
A flock — Numerous, and placed in due order. Even — Smooth and even, as also clean and white. Twins — Which seems to denote the two rows of teeth. Barren — Not one tooth is lacking. |

1 Thessalonians 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received [it] not [as] the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
2 Peter 1:5-8 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; ... For if these things be in you, and abound, they make [you that ye shall] neither [be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
