Journey into Intimacy: A Study in the Song of Solomon embraces the Bibles most tender depiction of Gods love for His people, revealed in this brief and evocative biblical love poem. In its own way, Christy Hills study responds to the beloveds invitation: Rise up, my love, my fair one, / And come away (Song of Solomon 2:10). The study asks of God, revealed through the biblical text, the same thing the bride asks of her beloved: Let me see your face, / Let me hear your voice; / For your voice is sweet, / And your face is lovely (Song of Solomon 2:14). Making its way through the Song of Solomon, Journey into Intimacy presents the books passages and offers reflections and commentary on them over the course of six parts that correspond with the natural shifts in the biblical book. The authors approach rests upon listening to the Song of Solomon as an allegory that tells the story of the bride of Christ on earth as love lifts her out of fear and oppression and gives her new life with the King. On the other hand, Journey into Intimacy also tells the story of Christ, the bridegroom who seeks and woos His bride, revealing His heart for her. Journey into Intimacy: A Study in the Song of Solomon ventures into the depths of Gods love, where hearts that hunger may find a feast and searching hearts a home.

Notes, Critical and Practical, on these books is George Bush’s in-depth commentary on this important portion of the Old Testament. In two volumes, Bush examines the title, author, and scope of each book, while also digging into the civil and ecclesiastical polity of the Israelites. He provides verse-by-verse commentary for a deeper understanding of this significant historical book, and dedicates additional pages on the subject of the “Shekinah,” a grammatically feminine Hebrew word that is important to understand when reading the Scriptures.

"As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo."--Publisher's website.
