Song of Songs. One of the five
scrolls of the Hebrew scriptures. In the hagiographa (
Writings), it follows Job and precedes
Ruth. Song of Songs consists of a series of love songs of an entirely secular nature. It has, however, been interpreted as an
allegory of the love of God for his people, either the Israelites or the Christian soul.
