Review
Rating: Unrated
Robert Jenson, a Lutheran theologian with strong Catholic leanings, writes with such unique style that he should be thought of as an artist with pen and paper. Though I’m not always convinced by his theology, it is always well argued and stimulating. In this commentary he shows how the poetic and risqué book Song of Songs is about both human and divine romance, and, furthermore, he stresses the communal aspect of the latter. The love affair God desires with us is always personal but never private.
