The Human-Level Love Relationship

The human-level love relationship between husband and wife described in the Bible, such as in the book of Song of Solomon or teachings of Paul in Ephesians, is symbolic of the spiritual mystery of the love relationship between believers and Jesus Christ. While these teachings touch on human sexuality and marriage covenant, they also convey the deeper spiritual connection between the soul and God. Thus, understanding the human-level love relationship in this context helps us perceive the spiritual intimacy between the soul and its Savior within the marital relationship.
