Song of Solomon 3 Introduction
日本語
Originale inglese
The bride relates to the chorus what appears to be an imaginary occurrence transacted in a dream (like that of Sol 5:2-8). The Targum takes this section to be typical of the wanderings of Israel after the Holy One in the wilderness, as the next Sol 3:6-11 is made to represent their entrance into the land.

Song of Solomon 3:6
日本語
雅歌の主要かつ中心的な行為。すなわち、花嫁がダビデの町に入り、そこで王と婚姻することである。ユダヤ人の解釈者たちは、詩のこの部分が、旧約の教会が約束の地に「初めて」入ったこと、およびソロモンの神殿の建設と、そこで受け入れられる礼拝の制度の制定とを通して、万王の王と霊的に婚約し、交わりを持ったことを象徴するとみなす。キリスト教の教父たちも同様の精神で、ここにあるほとんどすべてのものを、受難と復活におけるキリストと教会の婚約に、またはそれを黙想するキリスト者の魂とキリストとの交わりに適用する。
Songs 3:6-11
二人以上のエルサレムの市民、または花婿の仲間である若者たちの合唱隊が、王のかごに乗せられて運ばれて来る花嫁の荘厳な姿を描き、次いで、婚礼の冠をかぶり祝宴の喜びのうちに現れる王の姿を描く。
Songs 3:6
ここでの「荒野」は、町の周囲の耕地および垣根で囲まれた園と対照をなす牧草地を意味する。Jeremiah 23:10; Joel 2:22; Isaiah 42:11; Psalm 65:12 と比較せよ。
「煙の柱」――ここでは喜びと楽しみの像である。乳香およびその他の香料が婚礼の行列の周りで非常に豊かに焚かれるため、遠くから見ると、行列全体が動く煙の輪と柱のように見える。
「商人のあらゆる香料」――商取引の品目をなすあらゆる種類の香料を指す。
Originale inglese
The principal and central action of the Song; the bride's entry into the city of David, and her marriage there with the king. Jewish interpreters regard this part of the poem as symbolizing the "first" entrance of the Church of the Old Testament into the land of promise, and her spiritual espousals, and communion with the King of kings, through the erection of Solomon's Temple and the institution of its acceptable worship. Christian fathers, in a like spirit, make most things here refer to the espousals of the Church with Christ in the Passion and Resurrection, or the communion of Christian souls with Him in meditation thereon.
Songs 3:6-11
Two or more citizens of Jerusalem, or the chorus of youths, companions of the bridegroom, describe the magnificent appearance of the bride borne in a royal litter, and then that of the king in festive joy wearing a nuptial crown.
Songs 3:6
"wilderness" is here pasture-land in contrast with the cultivated districts and garden-enclosures round the city. Compare Jeremiah 23:10; Joel 2:22; Isaiah 42:11; Psalm 65:12.
Pillars of smoke - Here an image of delight and pleasure. Frankincense and other perfumes are burned in such abundance round the bridal equipage that the whole procession appears from the distance to be one of moving wreaths and columns of smoke.
All powders of the merchant - Every kind of spice forming an article of commerce.

日本語
「寝台」――おそらく、花嫁を乗せて運ぶ王の駕籠または輿を指す。その周りには、イスラエルの勇士たちの中から選ばれた六十人の強者から成る王自身の親衛隊が囲んでいる。
Originale inglese
Bed - Probably the royal litter or palanquin in which the bride is borne, surrounded by his own body-guard consisting of sixty mighties of the mighty men of Israel.

「夜の恐れのゆえに」――すなわち、夜の襲撃に備えて、という意味である。Psalm 91:5 と比較せよ。
Originale inglese
Because of fear in the night - i. e., Against night alarms. Compare Psalm 91:5.

Song of Solomon 3:9

Originale inglese
A stately bed hath king Solomon made for himself of woods (or trees) of the Lebanon. The word rendered "bed" occurs nowhere else in Scripture, and is of doubtful etymology and meaning. It may denote here
(1) the bride's car or litter; or
(2) a more magnificent vehicle provided for her reception on her entrance into the city, and in which perhaps the king goes forth to meet her.
It has been made under Solomon's own directions of the costliest woods (ceda and pine) of the Lebanon; it is furnished with "pillars of silver" supporting a "baldachin" or "canopy of gold" (not "bottom" as in the King James Version), and with "a seat (not 'covering') of purple cushions," while "its interior is paved with (mosaic work, or tapestry of) love from (not 'for') the daughters of Jerusalem;" the meaning being that this part of the adornment is a gift of love, whereby the female chorus have testified their goodwill to the bride, and their desire to gratify the king.

Song of Solomon 3:11
日本語

Originale inglese
Daughters of Zion - So called here to distinguish them from the bride's companions, who are always addressed by her as "daughters of Jerusalem."
His mother - Bathsheba 1 Kings 1:11. This is the last mention of her in sacred history.
花嫁は、夢の中で行われたと見られる空想上の出来事を合唱隊に語る（Sol 5:2-8 の場合と同様である）。タルグムはこの箇所を、荒野において聖なる方を追ってイスラエルがさまよったことの予型とみなしており、続く Sol 3:6-11 は彼らがその地に入っていくことを表すものと解している。
