Geneva Bible Notes Reformed @genevanotes

Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name [is as] ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee. (b) The feeling of your great benefits. (c) They that are pure in heart and conversation.

Sol 1:3 This comparison suaves prae vino, as well as that which in line 3 of the pentastich, Sol 1:3, To smell thy ointments are sweet shows that when this song is sung wine is presented and perfumes are sprinkled; but the love of the host is, for those who sing, more excellent than all. It is maintained that ריח signifies fragrance emitted, and not smell.
