Song of Solomon 3:6-10

Song of Songs gives us a picture of God’s way leading up to the wedding and afterward. It shows us the beauty of a marriage covenant lived God’s way. Let’s teach the next generation God’s way and embrace it in our own lives.

This is the fifteenth installment of our Bible reading plan, following a lectionary-style pattern with daily readings from the Psalms, Old Testament, and New Testament. Each day includes a devotional primer to guide your time in God’s Word. This month’s theme is purpose. In Ecclesiastes, we question what truly matters. Song of Songs reveals the purpose of love and relationships. Paul’s letters call us to live with clarity, identity, and mission in Christ. Together, these books invite us to discover God’s purpose—and how it shapes every part of our lives.

Song of Solomon is a stirring collection of love poems by King Solomon. This book exemplifies the ideal example of marriage and sexuality: exclusive, intimate, binding love between a man and a woman. It proclaims this love as a valid, beautiful, and joyful gift of God amid a sinful world.
