Comentário sobre Cantares 7:10

And let your speech be like good wine. Be cautious with your answers that they should be like the best wine.²⁹See Daniyeil, chapter 3.

And your mouth is like the choicest wine: Your words are nothing less than an advocate, championing the cause of Israel before the Glory, giving expression to the lips of the sleepers—these are Israel in their exile.

It flows for my beloved in sincerity. I am careful to answer them that I will remain steadfast in my faith, and my speech will go before my Beloved with sincere love, which comes from the heart, and not with deceit and guile.

Like good wine. Which makes the lips of the sleeping murmur. Even my ancestors in the grave will rejoice with me and give thanks for their lot.³⁰I.e., your answers should be clear and potent. “דּוֹבֵב” [means] causing to move, fromier in O.F. and its root, is an expression of speech. And this is the answer, “I am my Beloved’s and He longs for me.”³¹The comparison to wine is because the taste of wine remains in one’s mouth long after drinking it. The mere mention of the words of the departed sages, causes their lips to murmur in their graves. See Maseches Yevamos 97a and Rashi there.
