Cantico dei cantici 2:7 Commento: Rashi & Ezra ben Solomon

I bind you under oath. You, the nations.

I adjure you: She speaks to Israel: beware lest sin causes the shekhinah to depart.

By the gazelles and the does. That you will be abandoned and preyed upon like gazelles and does.

That you do not cause hatred nor disturb this love. That is between my beloved and I, to change it or to exchange it and seek that I be lured after you.

While it still pleases. As long as it is ingrained in my heart, and He desires me.

While it still pleases. As in, “While עַד the king was at his table,”¹¹Above 1:12. [i.e.,] while the king was still at his table.

That you do not cause hatred. If you cause hatred [=עֵר, as in, “and has become your adversary עָרֶךָ,”¹²I Shmuel 28:16. [and as in,] “And its interpretation upon Your enemies לְעָרָיךְ.”¹³Daniyeil 4:16.

Nor disturb. As in, “one who contests הָעוֹרֵר the ownership of a field,”¹⁴Mishnayos Kesubos 13:6. chaloner in O.F. There are many Aggadic Midrashim, but they do not match the sequence of the topics, for I see that Shlomo prophesied and spoke about the exodus from Egypt and about the giving of the Torah, and the Tabernacle, the entry into the land [i.e., Eretz Yisroel], and the Beis Hamikdosh, the exile in Bavel, and the coming of the second Beis Hamikdosh and its destruction.
