Song of Solomon for Skeptics

The Song of Solomon is an erotic love poem in which the name of God isn't even mentioned. Aren't you glad it is in the Bible? (Joseph Smith wasn't. It is the only book in the King James Version that he left out of his " Inspired Version".)

Here are some highlights:

•  "Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine. 1:2

•  "He shall lie all night betwixt my breasts." 1:13

•  "His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me. I charge you ... that he stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please." 2:6, 8:3

•  Our heroine takes her lover into her mother's bedroom and asks not to be disturbed "till he please." 3:4-5

• "Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins." 4:5, 7:3

•  "My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him." 5:4

•  "The joints of thy thighs are like jewels." 7:1

•  "Thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine." 7:8

•  "We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts ... [But] my breasts [are] like towers." 8:8, 10

And here's a really nice song about the Song of Solomon!
