1st sexual temptation
As they have added value to each other and have verbalized their love toward each other respect has grown, love has grown and now we see the sexual desire arise. Raisin cakes were a natural aphrodisiac, In 2 Samuel 6:19 David gives out raisin cakes in celebration in an effort to have Israel increase in the land. Here Solomons bride is giving a sexual invitation, "His left hand is under my head, and his right hand embraces me!", this is the sexual position. Solomon mans up and make a strong move here, he takes the lead in putting on the brakes. The man takes the lead in restraint. He is communicating to her, yes that is good, that is right , but not yet.
