Albert Barnes Commentary Song Of Solomon 4:7

"Thou art all fair, my love; And there is no spot in thee." — Song Of Solomon 4:7 (ASV)

Section 4:7–5:1: Meeting the bride in the evening of the same day, the king once again expresses his love and admiration in the sweetest and most tender terms and imagery. He now calls her “bride” (spouse, Song of Solomon 4:8) for the first time, to mark this as the hour of their marriage, and “sister-bride” (spouse, Song of Solomon 4:9–10, 12; 5:1), to express the similarity in thought and disposition that from now on unites them. At the same time, he invites her to leave her birthplace and its mountain surroundings for his sake, and to live from now on for him alone.
