In
Song of Solomon, the Lord says of his bride: "How fair and how pleasant
art thou, O love, for delights!" (Song of Solomon 7:6). Three of the
Hebrew words in this verse are synonymous: fair (meaning "precious"),
pleasant (indicating "pleasure"), and delights.
These words
describe Jesus' thoughts toward His bride as He beholds her. He looks at
her and says, "How beautiful, sweet and delightful you are. You are
precious to me, O love!" And in turn, the bride boasts, "I am my
beloved's, and his desire is toward me" (verse 10). The meaning here is,
"He runs after me with delight. He chases me because I am so precious
to him!"
