Hopefully you have been following the last 4 shows on this very important Movement 4 of the Song of Songs. There was the shocking betrothal of the Great King and this very unworthy emotionally shredded bride with a secret shame. Then the great marriage procession, likely following two aborted processions, the original runaway bride. Then the public proclamation of the King’s love for her in front of friends, family and dignitaries—and of course the consummation, the yichud, the event that she had been terrified of from the beginning. Why? Because, there, her dark private secrets are going to become public. And she is right. Except that the love of this King does its best work with unsuitable brides, unworthy brides. In their consummation, his reputation is not soiled by her or her uglies. Her reputation is raised up by his glory. We have never seen anything like it.
