Song of Solomon 4:7
You are altogether beautiful, my darling; in you there is no flaw.
BSB
ASV
Thou art all fair, my love; And there is no spot in thee.
KJV
Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
Section 4:7–5:1: The king meeting the bride in the evening of the same day, expresses once more his love and admiration in the sweetest and tenderest terms and figures. He calls her now “bride” (spouse, Son 4:8) for the first time, to mark it as the hour of their espousals, and “sister-bride” (spouse, Son 4:9-10, Son 4:12; Son 5:1), to express the likeness of thought and disposition which henceforth unites them. At the same time he invites her to leave for his sake her birthplace and its mountain neighborhood, and live henceforth for him alone.
There is no spot but such as is often the spot of God's children, none of the leopard's spots. The church, when Christ shall present it to himself a glorious church, will be altogether without spot or wrinkle, Eph. v. 27 . The Love of Christ to the Church.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
