壹　在雅歌六章十三节，佳偶经过变化的各阶段，成为书拉密女，所罗门的复本：─引用经文
I.　In Song of Songs 6:13 the lover, having passed through various stages of transformation, has become the Shulammite, Solomon's duplication:
一　她在生命、性情、彰显和功用上，与所罗门一样，正如夏娃之于亚当─创二20~23。
A.　She is the same as Solomon in life, nature, expression, and function, as Eve was to Adam—Gen. 2:20-23.
二　这表征爱基督的人在基督生命的成熟里，在生命、性情、彰显和功用上，但不在神格上，成为与基督一样─林后三18，罗八29。
B.　This signifies that in the maturity of Christ's life the lover of Christ becomes the same as He in life, nature, expression, and function but not in the Godhead—2 Cor. 3:18; Rom. 8:29.
