Read in Logos

Footnotes

  1. 51 The subject of the 1st person common plural verb נַעֲשֶׂה (na’aseh) might be the maidens of Jerusalem mentioned in 1:4[5]. However, this might be an example of heterosis of number, that is, the 1st person common plural for 1st person common singular person. In this case, her lover—the speaker throughout the rest of 1:8–9[9–10]—would still be the speaker here. Other possible examples of heterosis of number of the plural for the singular in the Song include 1:3[4]; 2:15; 5:1b; 6:13[7:1].
  2. 52 Or “We will make gold ornaments with your studs of silver.”
