Unlike most books in the TaNaKah, Shir HaShirim (Song of Songs) does not focus on narrative, law, wisdom or historical events. Instead it is erotic poetry in which lovers express passionate desire through the exchange of words fragrant with adoration and desire. We will explore what led our Sages to imagine that this book was suitable for the Jewish scriptural cannon and how church patriarchy reinterpreted classical rabbinic understanding. Please join us!
