Song of Solomon 8:6-7
King James Version (KJV)
6 Set
me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is
strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are
coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
The Message (MSG)
Hang my locket around your neck,
wear my ring on your finger.
Love is invincible facing danger and death.
Passion laughs at the terrors of hell.
The fire of love stops at nothing—
it sweeps everything before it.
Flood waters can’t drown love,
torrents of rain can’t put it out.
Love can’t be bought, love can’t be sold—
it’s not to be found in the marketplace.
The heart is the seat of emotion (life flows from our heartbeat)
The arm is the seat of our strength/power.
Love outlast anything and is even stronger than death and the grave, even I Corinthians 13 says the greatest is love. The seal like a piece of jewelry which one wears close to their heart, with love and faithfulness being the desire.
