Verse Takeaways
1
Love is Unquenchable
Commentators agree that this verse portrays love as an invincible force. Like a fire, it cannot be extinguished by "many waters" or "floods." For the believer, these floods can represent life's greatest challenges—persecution, affliction, temptation, and even personal sin. Yet, the love between Christ and His church, and the genuine love between a husband and wife, is designed to endure and overcome them all.
