Song of Songs 8:9
Wall or Door
A Love Many Waters Cannot Quench · Song of Songs 8
Story guide: The plural speakers continue with two possibilities, comparing the sister with a wall or a door and proposing different responses. Notice the solid stone and closed wooden entrance. The contrasting objects help you follow their conditional reasoning about protection and access; the picture does not enact confinement as an actual event.
Open this scene in the reader →9If she is a wall, we will build on her a battlement of silver; but if she is a door, we will enclose her with a board of cedar.
