Song of Songs: Audio Lectures

In Song of Songs: Audio Lectures, scholar and professor George Athas explores the wisdom this ancient book offers us for living out our faith today with integrity, fervor, balance, and devotion. Song of Songs doesn't easily fit our preconceptions as Christians. The Song of Songs has been interpreted as a frank-to-the-point-of-disturbing depiction of erotic love or a rather loose-fitting spiritual allegory for Christ's relationship with the church.

Song of Songs: Audio Lectures breathes life into each passage of the book, guiding learners by exploring each text's historical and canonical setting. Lessons reflect on how the text of Song of Songs can be lived today using easy-to-follow contemporary examples designed to help students live out God's story.
