Because of the fragrance of your good ointments your name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love you.
All Commentaries on Song of Songs 1:3 Go To Song of Songs 1
Richard Challoner
AD 1781
Draw me: That is, with thy grace: otherwise I should not be able to come to thee. This metaphor shews that we cannot of ourselves come to Christ our Lord, unless he draws us by his grace, which is laid up in his storerooms: that is, in the mysteries of Faith, which God in his goodness and love for mankind hath revealed, first by his servant Moses in the Old Law in figure only, and afterwards in reality by his only begotten Son Jesus Christ.
