Song of Songs 6:5

Turn away your eyes from me, for they have overcome me: your hair is as a flock of goats going down from Gilead.
All Commentaries on Song of Songs 6:5 Go To Song of Songs 6

Gregory of Nyssa

AD 394
A goat is honored because its thick coat provides an image of beauty for the bride. Another reason for praise is that a goat can pass over rocks with a sure foot, agilely turn on mountain peaks, courageously pass through difficult, rough places, and can go safely on the road of virtue. Some would maintain that this animal is suitable for the comparison with the bride because Moses the lawgiver uses it for many of the sacred functions of the law.
