Study 6B..In his endeavours and longing to be united with his bride he tried the door, only to find it was locked; so he put his hand through the keyhole. She saw this, but she did not at once rise to unbolt the door and let him in, and while she delayed, and because he would not force an entrance, he left.

Study 6B spiritual apathy
Song of songs 5:2-8
The part A of this study told us vividly the negligence of the woman which make her to lose her lover,though she later searched for Him,but was not an easy task we will be focussing on the remaining part of the study,which will entails the recovery of her lover and also what she really passed through. God bless you as you study.
4 . THE RECOVERY SHE SOUGHT
We get this in verses 4 and 5. A marvellous thing happened. Notice what the bridegroom did, in verse 4. In his endeavours and longing to be united with his bride he tried the door, only to find it was locked; so he put his hand through the keyhole. She saw this, but she did not at once rise to unbolt the door and let him in, and while she delayed, and because he would not force an entrance, he left. She was then overcome with contrition and sorrow, and she rose up to open the door. It seems from verse 5 that she hesitated because she wanted to anoint herself with ointments, and while she ministered to herself instead of to him, he withdrew and left. Has God ever spoken to you so clearly that you have known His voice and His will, but you have delayed? And then the impression left you completely. Delays can be dangerous.
”
5 . THE MISERY SHE ENDURED
We get this in verse 6, where we have the picture of a soul out of touch with the Lord. Notice the marks of such a person:-
(1) Her fellowship was broken – – “I opened……but my lover had left…”…” What a sad, sad experience! Is it yours?
(2) Her prayer was unanswered – – “I called him, but he did not answer…”…” Look up and compare Psalm 66:18.
(3) Her testimony was lost –- look at verse 7. When she went out of doors, the watchmen thought she was a sinful woman because she was out on the streets at night. They took away her veil, the greatest indignity that could be afforded to an oriental lady.
Thus, the ““sister””, the ““darling””, the ““dove””, the ““flawless”” one in verse 2 had completely lost her testimony before men. This must always be so when we are out of touch with the Lord. So what did she do?
”
6 . THE APPEAL SHE MADE
We get this in verse 8. She loved her lover so much that she felt sick on account of his absence. She could not live without him, so she turned to the daughters of Jerusalem and asked their help, and this help was given, for although the passage ends here it is evident that full fellowship was quickly restored. We can therefore conclude our study by thinking of this last point.
”
7 . THE BLISS SHE KNEW
Her lover came to her, and she and he were together in the closest bonds of love and fellowship, without a shadow between them. And that is how it should be; that is the only happy place, the place of lasting satisfaction and joy –- joy not only for us, but joy for our Bridegroom also.
