"Owen here aligns himself with those many Puritans who follow in the footsteps of Bernard and other medievals in expounding Song of Solomon as a parable of the mutual love of Christ and His spiritual bride the church and sometimes the Christian".
J I Packer - "Among God's Giants" - Kingsway (1993) - (p274).
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
