Why is the Song of Songs part of the Bible? This question has been answered in various ways throughout the ages, resulting in a greater diversity of interpretations than for perhaps any other biblical book.

Interpreting the Song of Songs provides soundings from different eras and key interpreters: early Judaism, Origen, Augustine, the medieval era, Martin Luther, and modern and postmodern approaches. The interpretive history of the Song is a captivating study in itself. By listening to the past, we can discern how the Song sings today.
