How beautiful your sandaled feet... Song of Solomon 7:1

Interesting passage it is the descriptions of the bride by the groom and vice versa in Song of Solomon. Let us pay attention to the descriptions as indeed we are the bride personified here...

Here, the Lover admires how beautiful His bride's feet are. Not just bare feet, he specially mentions 'sandaled feet'.

What kind of sandal it would be? In Ephesians chapter 6, where we read about getting ready in the full armor of God, in verse 15 it says: "... with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace".

Oh! Now we get it! It is not just any sandal we are talking about here; it is 'the readiness' that is implied. Readiness? Readiness for what? Clearly it mentions 'readiness that comes from the gospel of peace'.

In Isaiah 52:7 we read: How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!"

Let us check if we are fitted with the 'sandal' our Groom so admires...
