Cantico dei cantici 4:6 Commento: Rashi & Ezra ben Solomon

Until the sun spreads. Until the sun spreads.

When the day blows gently: This refers to the removal of the sovereignty of the nations.

And the shadows flee. That is the time of intense heat, the hottest time of the day. I will save you, and you are pleasant to me.

The sun. הַיּוֹם here means] “the sun,”⁴⁷Usually it means “the day.” and similarly, “in the direction of the sun הַיּוֹם,”⁴⁸Bereishis 3:8. and similarly, “for behold, the sun הַיּוֹם comes, burning like a furnace,”⁴⁹Malachi 3:19. and once the sun has spread, “I will go to Mount Moriyah,” into the eternal Temple, [from] Bereishis Rabbah,⁵⁰Bereishis Rabbah 55:7. i.e., from when they sinned before Me by profaning My sacred offerings and by spurning My meal offerings in the days of Chofni and Pinchas.⁵¹See I Shmuel 2:12-17. I will leave you and I will abandon this Tabernacle, and I will choose for Myself Mount Moriyah, into the eternal Temple. And there, “you are completely beautiful ... and you are without blemish,”⁵²Below Verse 7. and there I will accept all your sacrifices.
