The Pastor’s Study – Winter 2026 (Vol. 6.1)

Resource Details

Description

In this issue, we have prepared a wide range of material on the Song of Solomon, from devotional material (pages 3, 4, 20) to helps for sermon preparation, practical theology, and deeper study. The Preacher’s Workshop (pages 10–11) includes some help in understanding Scripture typology. Reading and understanding the Song of Solomon (page 6) and the descriptive poems (page 14) may require more careful thought, but it will pay off.

Dr Stephen Myers provides a clear and helpful approach to the Song of Solomon (page 4), and we’ve included an article on talking about sex by Mr James W. Beeke (page 16). Another article in the Practical Theology section draws lessons from the book that will help with biblical courtship or dating (page 18).

We have also prepared an edition of Henry Law’s verse-by-verse devotional commentary on the Song of Solomon at www.krapfproject.org.
