The song of songs

The Song of songs is perhaps the most mysterious book of Scripture. One can only sympathize with academic theologians, who have to explain each new generation that the inclusion of the song of Songs in the Canon is not a coincidence. Really hard to see the "religious content and Holiness" in the lines, full of life, love of fire and eternally youthful luster, inspired countless generations of poets and thinkers of translation, imitation, and comments.
In this publication under one cover collected mini-encyclopedia the song of Songs. Here the translation in Russian language from the Orthodox Bible and the Torah. Several secular interpretations of this literary monument is crowned by a brilliant new translation, which come to life the passion of lovers and the exhilarating fragrance of the blossoming of the promised land, which constitute the background and the poetry of the senses in the ancient source, combining elegant simplicity and sleek perfection.
