6 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep coming up from the washing. Each has its twin, not one of them is missing.
6 Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.
6 Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing; all of them bear twins; not one among them has lost its young.
6 Your smile is generous and full - expressive and strong and clean.
6 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep Which have come up from the washing; Every one bears twins, And none is barren among them.
6 Your teeth are as white as sheep that are freshly washed. Your smile is flawless, each tooth matched with its twin.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Song of Solomon 6:6
Commentary on Song of Solomon 6:4-10
(Read Song of Solomon 6:4-10)
All the real excellence and holiness on earth centre in the church. Christ goes forth subduing his enemies, while his followers gain victories over the world, the flesh, and the devil. He shows the tenderness of a Redeemer, the delight he takes in his redeemed people, and the workings of his own grace in them. True believers alone can possess the beauty of holiness. And when their real character is known, it will be commended. Both the church and believers, at their first conversion, look forth as the morning, their light being small, but increasing. As to their sanctification, they are fair as the moon, deriving all their light, grace, and holiness from Christ; and as to justification, clear as the sun, clothed with Christ, the Sun of righteousness, and fighting the good fight of faith, under the banners of Christ, against all spiritual enemies.
