Song of Songs 1: 6 Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother’s children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
To dig into the statute aspect of this verse the word Solomon uses for “keep” is unique in that it starts with the letter nun- The Miracle verse of which is “I Have inclined my heart to Keep that statutes always even unto the end”… The point being the passion of the letter nun and the seed or faith aspect, as in in this worth dying for as Jesus said in His famous John 15 vine teaching -“Greater Love hath no man than to lay down his life for his friend.”
So abide is huge as is Psalm 80 when it comes to studying vines as well. This episode will explore this and much more.
