Reading for February 1st

 Read Song of 6.11-13. In verses 11-12: The woman speaks. The regal imagery continues, as the woman calls her lover my prince. In verse 13: A call to the woman. Shulammite: The woman is called "the Shulammite," meaning unclear. it could be a feminine form of the name Solomon, indicating nobility. An unidentified group asks to  gaze upon her. The man rebuffs the request. A dance before two armies may refer to a specific kind of dance or perhaps explains that such a display would be as lewd as a woman dancing in front of two armies of men. Comments or Questions..
