    The Song.8.6 "Jealousy"

    "Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame."

    St Paul exhorts, You are complete in him" and what is the substance of your house then? "For in him (Christ) dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily."(Col.1.9-10) It was thus God did fashion our heart salike. God does try our works."

    Abiding in Christ as we have seen from the creation of Eve was on thesingle rib, and doctrine of Christ is the soil from which you draw your nourishment. We find many waters mentioned with a treeof righteousness, "And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper."(Ps.1.3) Many waters which denote heavenly blessings. The Law or the Coveant wiorks effectively so whatsoever you doshall prosper.' This love you testify in your daily walk is as strong as death.The arrows in the hand of the mighty man make you at the gate of death as St Stephen did,(Ps.127.5)

    "Set me as a seal' is another way expressig this abiding life. The works you do as though Christin you did.Seal upon thine arms works likean amulet, a talisman. On the otherhad jealousy and we need go back to Ge,1,2, "and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." While sacred love sets you world all lit up what does darkness can offer to the childreen of wrath? Profane love speaks of destruction."jealousy is cruel as the grave.' "For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?"(Ps.6.5) " if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned,," meaning his soul is of little worth, :he heart of the wicked is little worth. It is worthy of hell fire.(Prov.10.20)
