[AlShamms]

Bismillah
Oo Shamms, was my question so difficult to understand, sorry, may be my bad English, I didnt phrase it well engough.


Let me try agains:


As I can see, you and reepi are quite well versed in the bible, you do read it frequently.


I m asking your and reepi's opinion, as readers of a book of worship, I assume you read it as part of worship and learning, <b>what is your opinion exactly about a text like</b>:


Song of the songs.


Ezekiel 23:20 (full chapter).


?


Again for more clarification:


How do you rate those two examples?

Peace....


Muslimah, this is what I think:


Song of Songs


A detailed relationship between Christ and his Church.


Ezekiel 23:20


In this chapter the idolatries of Israel and Judah are represented under the metaphor of two harlots, and their lewdness. These harlots are described by their descent; by the place and time in which they committed their whoredoms; by their names, and which are explained, Eze_23:1
,


the idolatries of Israel, or the ten tribes, under the name of Aholah, which they committed with the Assyrians, and which they continued from the Egyptians, of whom they had learned them, are exposed, Eze_23:5
,


and their punishment for them is declared, Eze_23:9



then the idolatries of Judah, or the two tribes, under the name of Aholibah, are represented as greater than those of the ten tribes, Eze_23:11
,


which they committed with the Assyrians, Eze_23:12
,


with the Chaldeans and Babylonians, Eze_23:13



in imitation of the Egyptians, reviving former idolatries learnt of them, Eze_23:19
,


wherefore they are threatened, that the Chaldeans, Babylonians, and Assyrians, should come against them, and spoil them, and carry them captive, Eze_23:22
,


and the prophet is bid to declare the abominable sin of them both, Eze_23:36
,


and to signify that they should be judged after the manner of adulteresses, should be stoned, and dispatched with swords, their sons and their daughters, and their houses burnt with fire; by which means their adulteries or idolatries should be made to cease, Eze_23:45
