"Go
out and see, daughters of Zion, the King shlomo; in the crown which
His mother has made Him,
on the day of His wedding, and on the day that his Heart Rejoices."
The
above verse surrounds the Ketubah, taken from
the Song of Songs. ( 3:11)
Salomon, refers to Israel in this verse as His mother.
Salomon, through Divine inspiration, refers to Israel's spiritual
leadership in this verse as being God's figurative mother. The use
of this metaphor is meant to express God's great love for Israel.
"On the day of His wedding" - the Mishnah explains: this
refers to when the Torah was given.
"The day that His heart rejoices" - refers to when the Beth
Hamikdash was built.
