The voice of my beloved! behold, he comes leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
All Commentaries on Song of Songs 2:8 Go To Song of Songs 2
Jerome
AD 420
Let us follow Christ in the mountains since our brother like a gazelle or a young stag came leaping over the hills, springing across the mountains. In truth, Christ after the resurrection did not ascend into heaven from the valley but from the mountain. Unless we are mountains of virtue, we cannot ascend into heaven.
