Song of Songs 8:14
_ _ (See on Song of Songs 2:17). As she began with longing for His first coming (Song of Songs 1:2), so she ends with praying for His second coming (Psalms 130:6; Philippians 3:20, Philippians 3:21; Revelation 22:20). Moody Stuart makes the roe upon spices to be the musk deer. As there are four gardens, so four mountains, which form not mere images, as Gilead, Carmel, etc., but part of the structure of the Song: (1) Bether, or division (Song of Songs 2:17), God’s justice dividing us from God. (2) Those “of leopards” (Song of Songs 4:8), sin, the world, and Satan. (3) That “of myrrh and aloes” (Song of Songs 4:6, Song of Songs 4:14), the sepulchre of Calvary. (4) Those “of spices,” here answering to “the hill of frankincense" (Song of Songs 4:6), where His soul was for the three days of His death, and heaven, where He is a High Priest now, offering incense for us on the fragrant mountain of His own finished work (Hebrews 4:14, Hebrews 7:25; Revelation 8:3, Revelation 8:4); thus He surmounts the other three mountains, God’s justice, our sin, death. The mountain of spices is as much greater than our sins, as heaven is higher than earth (Psalms 103:11). The abrupt, unsatisfied close with the yearning prayer for His visible coming shows that the marriage is future, and that to wait eagerly for it is our true attitude (1 Corinthians 1:7; 1 Thessalonians 1:10; Titus 2:13; 2 Peter 3:12). |

Make haste — Seeing we must part for a time, make haste, O my beloved bridegroom, and speedily finish the work which thou hast to do in the world, that so thou mayest take me to thyself, that I may live in thine everlasting embraces. |

(k) Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of spices.
(k) The Church desires Christ that if he depart from them, yet he would haste to help them in their troubles. |
- Make haste:
- Heb. Flee away,
Song of Songs 2:17 Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.
Luke 19:12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
Philippians 1:23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
Revelation 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
