Spiritually smelling, doncha just love the smell of mandrakes in the morning ?
I came upon this passage today on accident, or so I thought….what are your thoughts on the signicant aromas at work here?
"The mandrakes give a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits , new and old, which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved." Song of Solomon 7:13
I just love the spiritual sense of this aroma……But what does this really mean ?
I also love the mention made of things both New and Old….that has been laid up for thee beloved !
Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder, which brings forth out of his treasure things new and old. Matthew 13:52
Is the mention of "all manner of pleasant fruits" in the Song of Songs speaking of the Precious Fruit which the Spirit is bringing forth in His Precious people ?
Lastly, " Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain." James 5:7
much love to you ALL : )
P.S. Here is the Hebrew word for Mandrakes….דּוּדי
dûday
doo-dah’-ee
From H1731; a boiler or basket; also the mandrake (as aphrodisiac): – basket, mandrake.
Doo Dah Doo Dah ….. I dont mean to be a "basket case"….But wasn’t baby Moses rescued by a basket case ?
"O0ooo 0ooooo that smell……cant you smell that smell…..the smell of Mandrakes around you !" ?=))
"Now thanks be unto God, which ALWAYS causeth us TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the savor(Frangrance) of HIS KNOWLEDGE by us in every place." 2Corinthians 2:14
What does the Fragrance of the Knowledge the Glorious Triumph of the LOVE of CHRIST smell like to you beloved of God ? Saa~ WeeeeeT ~ !?

Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.

no not really
I am not sure what this means spiritually. I don’t know much about the plant. What it smells, looks or taste like.
The plant is poisonous, yet is suppose to promote fertility and smell good. It has hallucinogen properties?
So is also thought to be an aphrodisiac by some.
So what does that mean?
I think it has something to do with spiritual intimacy.
Doodah, doodah, Oh the doodah day.
I am sorry the only place I have ever heard about this plant mandrake is in Rapunsel and do not know what they are or look like. sorry
