jul 14, 1020 BC - Song of Solomon Completed

Description:

In the Song of Solomon, the king reveals that even fabulous wealth did not guarantee that he could always get what he wanted in matters of love. He chronicles his attempt to win the heart of a beautiful young virgin who was already in love with a shepherd boy. This inspired song shows that when people feel a strong physical attraction, they need not act in an undignified way. The young couple display admirable self-control, chasteness, and loyalty.
