Unknown Hebrew
I write under the name Unknown Hebrew as a devoted member of the Fourth Tribe of Israel, walking daily in faith and obedience to YAHUAH. My journey began within Christian doctrine, but a thirst for deeper truth led me back to the foundation of it all—the Hebrew Israelites. That spiritual homecoming rekindled my purpose: to study, to write, and to live by the ancient paths YAHUAH established for His chosen people. The name Unknown Hebrew reflects my core belief—to turn all attention away from myself and toward the glory of YAHUAH, our ELOHIM. Everything I create is for His purpose: to study and show ourselves approved, to walk in the ways of the Order of Melchizedek, to spread the gospel to Israelites scattered across the earth, and to await with faith the return of our King and High Priest, YAHUSHUA.

Song of Solomon - Unknown Hebrew
INTRODUCTION
––––––––
The Song of Solomon is a book that falls into the area of poetry in the Old Testament. A beautiful book of poetry, and there are many ways to approach the Song of Solomon. To be more exact, the Song of Solomon is a series of love songs given by one individual, a man, to another individual, a woman. It is a relationship between a husband and a wife. The Song of Solomon 1:1 tells us, ¹ The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
Over the centuries, there has been debate about who the author of the Song of Solomon might be; dogmatically speaking, the author is ELOHIM himself. The Ruach Ha’Kodesh not only wrote the Song of Solomon but all Scripture, every verse, and every word.
The Ruach Ha’Kodesh works through human beings’ instrumentality. ¹ The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
give us the answer as to who wrote it. Why doubt, question, or criticize it? ELOHIM used Solomon to write this beautiful book of love. We will get some pushback on our position from those who say Solomon had many wives and concubines and could not have been under the inspiration of the Ruach Ha’Kodesh. Solomon wrote these words, 117 verses, and note where this book is placed in the Bible; Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, and Isaiah. The Song of Solomon comes after the Book of Ecclesiastes; it is where the Ruach Ha’Kodesh has it located in the Bible. Ecclesiastes is a pessimistic
book; it is a book that looks at the dark side of life. In comparison, the Song of Solomon is an optimistic
view of life.
We believe the Song of Solomon’s greatest application is the relationship between YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach and Israel. Ecclesiastes says vanity of vanities; all is vanity; Solomon searches every area of life in Ecclesiastes to find meaning, purpose, and happiness; he could not find it. In the Song of Solomon, nothing is vain, everything falls into place, and life is complete because we are the bride of YAHUSHUA. We have found our groom and everything in our life finds fulfillment in Him. Ecclesiastes shows the insufficiency of life, and the Song of Solomon illustrates the sufficiency of YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach in meeting our every need. Ecclesiastes presents the world’s pleasures; money, houses, sexual relationships, and self-importance. None of those will bring lasting fulfillment. The Song of Solomon says, try YAHUSHUA; love, study, brag on YAHUSHUA; that is what the Shulamite does throughout the book.
The Song of Solomon uplifts and magnifies YAHUSHUA. When we compare Ecclesiastes and the Song of Solomon, we see how the Ruach Ha’Kodesh juxtaposed these books. We have two opposite books, and John 4 perfectly describes these two books. Read John 4:6-7, which tells us, ⁶ Now Jacob's well was there. YAHUSHUA therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour. ⁷ There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: YAHUSHUA saith unto her, Give me to drink.
Skip down to John 4:13, which reads, ¹³ YAHUSHUA answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again.
That is Ecclesiastes; anything we partake in Ecclesiastes; anything of this world will cause us to thirst again. John 4:14 tells us, ¹⁴ But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
Ecclesiastes will give us a bunch of things, and as soon as we have experienced them, we will be thirsty again.
The Song of Solomon gives us YAHUSHUA; we experience Him and will never thirst again. When we look at the vocabulary of the Song of Solomon 1:1, we see he begins the book ¹ The song of songs...
in Hebrew; when a word is used in this manner, it puts this term in a superlative position. The ¹...song of songs...
Solomon stated this is the best; it is unmatched, excellent; it is the outstanding work of his life and reign. It is the holy of holies,
the song of songs,
and the holy of holies
is the holiest place. King of kings
is the king of all kings; ELOHIM of Elohim’s.
That is the way Hebrew functions the song of songs;
even the noun for song
means something; it will have a melody
to it. It is poetry; this book is a poetic book that comes from a word that means to travel.
According to the Blue Letter Bible, the root word for song
in the Hebrew is "šûr (shoor) (H7788), meaning to travel, journey, go; traveler (participle). To
travel, and the implication here is if we know YAHUSHUA like this book presents Him, He will become the song of our lives. It says,
¹ The song of songs, which is Solomon’s; which he claims does not say it is written to or for Solomon. The root word for Solomon is Shalom, and that word in Hebrew is peace. In that sense, Solomon is a type of Messiah Ha’Mashiach, not in his degradation; our savior is spotless, not in his backsliding; YAHUSHUA was always faithful. But in Solomon’s reign for 40 years, he never fought one war in that period. He was a man of peace, ELOHIM gave him a reign of peace, and in that sense, our savior is the
prince of peace." (See our book, Peace Be Still: John 14:27, Peace For Everyday Living, His Shalom).
In the Song of Solomon, YAHUSHUA is presented as the bridegroom; it is the closest possible relationship with Him in this book. If we can gain the correct understanding from these Scriptures, we should learn how to walk better, talk, and tell Him how much love we have for Him. YAHUSHUA in a marriage union with His bride, Israel. The Song of Solomon is a love story, and the Bible has a lot of love stories. Adam and Eve, for instance, ELOHIM made Adam’s bride out of his flesh. Adam and Eve, that is a love story, Isaac and Rebecca, what a love story. Salmon and Rahab. There was Hosea and Gomer; she was a prostitute, and ELOHIM told Hosea to keep loving her and bring her back home, shower her with goodness; this is a picture of ELOHIM’s love for Israel even when Israel was disobedient; what a love story.
Joseph and Mary, we have Aquila and Priscilla; that is not a bad love story, but now YAHUSHUA and Israel; we love Him, and He loves us. Ezekiel 16 displays the love of ELOHIM, the Father for Israel. He found her dying, He cared for her, she grew and matured, and ELOHIM, the Father, proposed marriage to Israel. Israel has a bright future. The Song of Solomon, what a love story and Paul deals with it in 2nd Corinthians 11:2; he wrote, ² For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Ha’Mashiach.
That is the story of the Song of Solomon, a chaste
bride, and the groom. They fall in love, and now the Ruach Ha’Kodesh wants to keep the groom in heaven, preparing a place for us. The Ruach Ha’Kodesh intends to keep us pure, holy, and like a chaste virgin
so He can present us to YAHUSHUA one of these glorious days.
We think we know YAHUSHUA but do not know Him as a lover or with intimacy. We do not know Him in the sense of loving Him to come by and spending time with Him, enjoying His presence in the company of a love story. One of the most striking features of the Song of Solomon is as time goes by, their love develops and grows; it becomes mature. Many do not understand this precious holy of holies
book, the love for YAHUSHUA, and His love for us. They merely apply it as husband and wife love on earth, and it cannot have that application if it is in a godly
sense and a reverence. They never go beyond the physical aspect and look to the spiritual; they never look to YAHUSHUA and Israel.
Remember how Mary of Bethany is always seen at the feet of YAHUSHUA? We see her three times in the Scriptures, and she is specifically always at His feet. We are the Shulamite that wants to be put at the feet of YAHUSHUA, adoring and completely enraptured. Absolutely astounded and maybe saying some things that the bride expressed in the Song of Solomon; YAHUSHUA, you are altogether lovely. The book describes their love relationship as it grows, develops, and matures. It is like Mark 4:28, one of the briefest parables YAHUSHUA ever taught. It reads, ²⁸ For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
We will watch their love develop, first in its initial stages, then in its wedded blessed stages, and finally, in the older times of maturity. Growth in love for YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach.
We can study the Song of Solomon from four viewpoints; literally, we can learn some things about living together as husband and wife. It shows the glorification of wedded love. We can view it dispensationally, ELOHIM and Israel. Hosea 2:18-20 tells us, ¹⁸ And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely. ¹⁹ And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies. ²⁰ I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know YAHUAH.
Skip down to Hosea 2:23, which states, ²³ And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; and they shall say, Thou art my ELOHIM.
He tells us He loves us, chased, flirted, brought us in, and proposed marriage, He will be jealous of us, and we are His. That is the dispensational view.
The redemptive view is a picture of YAHUSHUA and Israel and how He loves us, how we are in love with Him in return. Then there is a moral view: communion, an individual me.
We could learn from the Song of Solomon's thoughtfulness, expressing kind words. YAHUSHUA and Israel; the bride; Israel and then the individual’s relationship with YAHUAH. Look at how the Song of Solomon seems to have impacted other areas of Scripture. When reading the Bible, we often read a quote, or there is an illusion to the Song of Solomon, and we do not even realize it. We alluded to John 4:14, where YAHUSHUA talked about a well of living water. It read, ¹⁴ But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
But in John 4:10, prior to what we just read, YAHUSHUA told her, ¹⁰ YAHUSHUA answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of ELOHIM, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Reread what He said in John 4:13, which says, ¹³ YAHUSHUA answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again.
You will never thirst again.
In the Song of Solomon 4:12, he talks about the Shulamite, saying, ¹² A garden inclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
Skip down to the Song of Solomon 4:15, which reads, ¹⁵ A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
It says, ¹⁵...a well of living waters...
in John 4, a well of living water. Paul discusses the veiled woman throughout 1st Corinthians 11; the veil on ladies and what it represents. In the Song of Solomon 5:7, we find the bride, and she says, ⁷ The watchmen that went about the city found me, they smote me, they wounded me; the keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.
Paul picks up that picture of the veil in the Song of Solomon and what it symbolizes. Modesty, humility, meek and quiet spirit, and Paul applies this in 1st Corinthians 11:5 to be specific, which reads, ⁵ But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
This is about a women’s covering.
James 5:7 talks about the precious fruit, which reads, ⁷ Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of YAHUAH. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
In the Song of Solomon 4:13, Solomon is talking to the Shulamite, which states, ¹³ Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard.
Precious fruit in James is alluding to the Song of Solomon’s spotless bride. In Ephesians 5 the spotless
bride is the same bride we find in the Song of Solomon 4:7 where it reads, ⁷ Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
She is a spotless bride. Paul uses that illustration, unquenchable love
in 1st Corinthians 13:8, which states, ⁸ Charity (Love) never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
Love is unquenchable, and the Song of Solomon 8:7 tells us, ⁷ Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
Ointment poured forth in John 12:3, which tells us, ³ Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of YAHUSHUA, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
Song of Solomon 1:3 reads, ³ Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
Throughout the Scriptures, the Song of Solomon impacts the word of ELOHIM.
SOME BASICS: THE BRIDE IS IN THE KINGS CHAMBER: 1st PEARL
––––––––
If we had to set the scene for this book, we would want to think about someone we were close to; someone we loved intimately and close to our hearts. It could be a soulmate
or someone who can relate to you on a deep level. Someone that respects and loves you, and you can share any situation with them without judgment. They believe in and desire the best for you, and you cannot do without that individual. That person might be the partner you have married or a brother, sister, mother, or father. Perhaps it is a close friend, but consider for a moment what it would be like if that person suddenly left you and you could no longer speak to them. You could no longer touch them or have any feelings of intimacy with them. Life would be incomplete without them.
Those of us who have lost loved ones in our past can understand this experience and the inadequacy in your life that you feel when things come that are good or difficult and that person is not there to share it with you. While we know that time does assist us, that person’s absence from us is such that time in a sense, does not diminish that desire to have them with us. It is consuming, and there is a void that does not get filled. In our personal lives, we may fill things with distractions in life; there might be hobbies, or we throw ourselves into our careers or travel, but there is this lingering emptiness.
Think for a moment that the person who has gone from your life to then in some period to suddenly come back unto your life and for that person to say, I will never leave you again. I will never separate myself from you. Imagine the feeling of elation you would have, and as dark and deep as that separation has been for many years, perhaps the sense of rejoicing will be so overpowering. When you think about the joy, warmth, and power of love being restored will be so great, sweet, and marvelous that it will have the ability to dispel the past.
What we just painted is the story of the Song of Solomon. The Song of Solomon is about the intimate feelings YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach has for His bride and the intense love, longing, and admiration the bride has for her husband. We are that bride; Israel is that bride, and YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach is that groom. The Song of Solomon is like a flower that we are afraid to pick due to fear of perhaps ripping one of its petals with our clumsy hands. We were with YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach for three years and engaged to Him. We walked the streets of Jerusalem with Him; we went up to Galilee with Him and read the pages of the gospel records about His life. We have loved and learned His ways; we have watched Him deal with people and loved it.
We love His strength, but we also love His sensitivity. We understand as we have been with Him every day for those three years. YAHUSHUA loved us first, and He is telling us during that time that He is prepared to give up His life for us. We only knew Him for such a short time, yet with that knowledge, knowing that He was prepared to give His life for us, we wanted and desired to commit our lives back to Him. We wanted to get engaged
to Him, and we have gone through three years of courtship
together. We look forward to being married to Him one day, which is what the Song of Solomon is all about.
Paul tells us in 2nd Corinthians 11:2, ² For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Ha’Mashiach.
We are the pure virgin;
YAHUSHUA is the husband, and ELOHIM has promised that husband to us (Israel). The feelings of love and intimacy and the longing to have YAHUSHUA Ha’Mashiach in our current lives needs to be strong, and it needs to be as strong as how this
