Welcome his advances (6:3). Once more we have returned to Eden before the fall. They are in the garden together, naked and with no shame (Gen 2:25). Shulammite gladly welcomes and receives the advances of her love. As she boldly proclaims, “I am my love’s and my love is mine; he feeds among the lilies.” I foolishly refused his advances earlier in this dream, this nightmare (5:2–3), but not now. I belong to him and he belongs to me. He is welcome in my garden. I want him there, and I want him to know
Song of Solomon 6:3
