Charles Ellicott Commentary Song Of Solomon 7:13

"The mandrakes give forth fragrance; And at our doors are all manner of precious fruits, new and old, Which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved." — Song Of Solomon 7:13 (ASV)

Mandrakes. —Heb. dûdaîm = love-apples. Suggested probably by the word loves immediately preceding, as well as the qualities ascribed to the plant, for which see Note, Genesis 30:14.
