Song of Solomon 2:2 - Like a lily among thorns is my darling

NIV Like a lily among thorns
is my darling among the maidens.
KJV As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.
NASB Like a lily among the thorns,
So is my darling among the maidens.
Song of Solomon 2:2

Commentary

Solomon tells his love that she stands out from amongst other women, who are less deserving of his praise and affection, as much as a lily stands out from amongst the thorns.

Did you know?

Scripture mentions the lily more often than any other type of flower.
