The Song of Songs: Interpreted by Early Christian and Medieval CommentatorsThe Song of Songs, traditionally attributed to Solomon, is a collection of lyrics that celebrate in earthly terms the love of a bridegroom and a bride. Throughout the course of early Christian history, the Song of Songs was widely read as an allegory of the love of Christ both for the church and for its individual members. In reading the Song this way, Christians were following in the steps of Jewish exegetes who saw the Song as celebrating the love

The Song of Songs, traditionally attributed to Solomon, is a collection of lyrics that celebrate in earthly terms the love of a bridegroom and a bride. Throughout the course of early Christian history, the Song of Songs was widely read as an allegory of the love of Christ both for the church and for its individual members. In reading the Song this way, Christians were following in the steps of Jewish exegetes who saw the Song as celebrating the love of God for Israel.

In The Song of Songs, the inaugural volume of The Church's Bible, Richard A. Norris Jr. uses commentaries and sermons from the church's first millennium to illustrate the original Christian understanding of Solomon's beautiful poem. In recent times, the Song of Songs has been more a focus of literary than of religious interest, but Norris's work shows that for early Christians, this text was counted, with the Psalms and the Gospels, among those Scriptures that touched most deeply on the believer's relation to God.

All in all, Norris's Song of Songs is a masterful work that aptly acquaints contemporary readers with the church's traditional way of discerning in this text a guide to the character of Christian belief and life. This volume -- and the entire Church's Bible series -- will be welcomed by preachers, teachers, students, and general readers alike.

Uncomfortable after several wears
Color: Light Beige, Size: 38DD
When I first tried it on, it seemed to fit and be comfortable, so I decided to keep it however, after wearing it for less than a month, it has become very uncomfortable and the side boning does not stay put, and bends which makes it very uncomfortable and digs into the skin. Bummer because I did like the very light foam padding, which is hard to find in a minimizer.

Uncomfortable
It is not comfortable. It’s runs small. The mesh is rough. The boning digs into my skin. The material doesn’t feel soft at all. It’s not the amount I paid for it either. I don’t understand what they mean by stretchy- what is stretchy? It did lift my bust and looks great under a t-shirt. I’m not sure how durable it is. Straps are adjustable.

Excellent fit for me!
Color: Light Beige, Size: 38D
Of all clothing, only shopping for swimsuits is a worse chore than shopping did bras. After a always trying many brand, this obesity was clear winner. Nice "breathable" fabrics for sides and back, inner cup side support gives nice shaping. Size chart was accurate. Stays in place, but comfortable and not too tight. I was shopping for fit and comfort and didn't buy to minimize. I don't really think I look smaller but I do look nicer.

Super Snug
Color: Light Beige, Size: 38DD
Good material, and cups did what they were supposed to. However, I did order my normal bra size and the band was very tight. Ended up returning because it was too constricting. Appreciated that this had some front coverage/lined too! Might order again in a different size. Definitely would have given 5 stars other than fit.
