Songs 2:3
Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest is my beloved among the young men. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
Songs 5:10–16
My beloved is dazzling and ruddy, outstanding among ten thousand. / His head is purest gold; his hair is wavy and black as a raven. / His eyes are like doves beside the streams of water, bathed in milk and mounted like jewels.
Matthew 13:44–46
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field. / Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls. / When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.
