[Song of Solomon 6](/study/song-of-solomon/6) [Song of Solomon 8](/study/song-of-solomon/8) ## Commentary To verse 1 **1. thy feet**—rather, "thy goings" ([Psalms 17:5](/kjv/psalms/17/5)). Evident allusion to [Isaiah 52:7](/kjv/isaiah/52/7): "*How beautiful* . . . are the *feet* of him . . . that publisheth *peace*" (Shulamite, [Isaiah 52:7](/kjv/isaiah/52/7)- :). **shoes**—Sandals are richly jewelled in the East ([Luke 15:22](/kjv/luke/15/22); [Ephesians 6:15](/kjv/ephesians/6/15)). She is evidently "on the mountains," whither she was wafted ([Ephesians 6:15](/kjv/ephesians/6/15)- :), *above* the daughters of Jerusalem, who therefore portray her *feet* first. **daughter**—of God the Father, with whom Jesus Christ is one ([Ephesians 6:15](/kjv/ephesians/6/15)- :), "children of (the) God" (of *peace*), equivalent to Shulamite ([Psalms 45:10-15](/kjv/psalms/45/10-15); [2 Corinthians 6:18](/kjv/2-corinthians/6/18)), as well as bride of Jesus Christ. **prince's**—therefore princely herself, freely giving the word of life to others, not sparing her "feet," as in [Song of Solomon 5:3](/kjv/song-of-solomon/5/3); [Exodus 12:11](/kjv/exodus/12/11). To act on the offensive is defensive to ourselves. **joints**—rather, "the rounding"; the full graceful curve of the hips in the female figure; like the *rounding* of a *necklace* (as the *Hebrew* for "jewels" means). Compare with the *English Version,* [Ephesians 4:13-16](/kjv/ephesians/4/13-16); [Colossians 2:19](/kjv/colossians/2/19). Or, applying it to the girdle binding together the robes round the hips ([Ephesians 6:14](/kjv/ephesians/6/14)). **cunning workman**— ([Psalms 139:14-16](/kjv/psalms/139/14-16); [Ephesians 2:10](/kjv/ephesians/2/10); [Ephesians 22:5](/kjv/ephesians/22/5); [Ephesians 22:30](/kjv/ephesians/22/30); [Ephesians 22:32](/kjv/ephesians/22/32)). ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7","name":"Song of Solomon 7 - Study King James Bible with commentary critical and explanatory on the whole bible","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"Read Song of Solomon 7 with commentary critical and explanatory on the whole bible commentary. 1 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince’s daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman. 2 Thy","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7"]}]},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/","name":"Home"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study","name":"Study Bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible","name":"commentary critical and explanatory on the whole bible"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon","name":"Song of Solomon"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":5,"item":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/commentary-critical-and-explanatory-on-the-whole-bible/song-of-solomon/7","name":"7"}}]},{"@type":["Person","Organization"],"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/android-chrome-512x512.png","width":512,"height":512},"logo":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#personlogo"},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/RBiblebeliever","https://www.facebook.com/RBibleBelievers"]}]} ```
