When used in a spiritual or allegorical sense, what are myrrh, honey and milk figurative of?
Song of Solomon 5:1
I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.
myrrh is for burial; notably a gift baby-lonian
wise men (magi) gave their child King: Law.
(100 lbs mixed: Matthew 2:11… John 19:39)
punny thing is, he later refused wine + myrrh
(Mark 15:23)
milk is for babes: Hebrews 5
who are unskilful in the word,
unable to use senses to discern:
law: both good + evil: ends badly.
honey is also good for wounds,
a sweetner that does not spoil.
As for Solomon, didn’t he also say,
and notably seven times in his Eccl’s:
law is all vanity and vexation of Grace.
Paul concurs, doesn’t vex God’s grace.
James also concurs: law’s vain religion.

Well, myrrh is to do with the dead and milk is to do with infants.
