Charles Spurgeon Commentary Song Of Solomon 1:8

"If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, Go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, And feed thy kids beside the shepherds` tents." — Song Of Solomon 1:8 (ASV)

The voice of my beloved!

The spouse knows it at once; her ear is so trained that she recognizes it as soon as she hears it. Jesus said that his sheep follow him, for they know his voice, and he added, A stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

Behold, he comes leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.

"I thought my sins would keep him back, for they seemed like great mountains, how could he come to me? But, behold, he makes nothing of those barriers: he comes leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills."
