Charles Spurgeon Commentary Song Of Solomon 4:8

"Come with me from Lebanon, [my] bride, With me from Lebanon: Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions` dens, From the mountains of the leopards." — Song Of Solomon 4:8 (ASV)

Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

My heart, leave the world, leave its sweet places, though Lebanon be full of fragrance, leave it. Leave the world's high places; though the top of Amana may seem to reach to heaven, leave even that to have communion with your Lord. Come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing. The best spots in the world are to you, O Spouse of Christ, but lions' dens and mountains of leopards. You are always in danger while you consort with worldlings, you are ever in peril while you are entangled with the world; so come away from Lebanon, from Amana, from Shenir and Hermon; leave everything for your Lord.
