Nevertheless, a synoptic view of the unique description of the beloved male in the Song of Songs (5,9-16 MT) and the bereavement of despoiled Jerusalem in the first part of the fourth elegy in Lamentations (4,1-10 MT) reveals a very conspicuous lexical affinity between the two pericopes. Inspired and guided by the criteria of intertextuality proposed by Manfred Pfister, the present paper is an attempt to enter into the scholarly debate on this topic by providing a text-oriented view on the intertextual dialogue between the two biblical passages. The quantitative and qualitative assessment of the detected lexical contacts converges towards a proposal concerning the possible direction of dependence and outlines further exegetical implications, namely the possibility of the intrinsic allegorical message within the text.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-526b0e4 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"526b0e4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a24d73 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1a24d73\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ba3273 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3ba3273\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Keywords:<\/h6>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c597b0c elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"c597b0c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-keywords\">\r\n  <div class=\"kw-inline\">Song of Songs, Lamentations, wa\u1e63f, intertextuality, allegory<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<style>\r\n  .article-keywords {\r\n    margin-top: 0.5rem; \/* odstup pod nadpisom *\/\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  .kw-inline {\r\n    font-size: 14px;\r\n    line-height: 1.6;\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  .kw-inline a {\r\n    color: #a73a2d;\r\n    text-decoration: none;\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  .kw-inline a:hover {\r\n    text-decoration: underline;\r\n  }\r\n<\/style>\r\n\r\n<script>\r\n  \/\/ z\u00e1klad pre vyh\u013ead\u00e1vanie (uprav, ak m\u00e1\u0161 in\u00fd tvar URL)\r\n  var SEARCH_BASE = '\/?s=';\r\n\r\n  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){\r\n    document.querySelectorAll('.kw-inline').forEach(function(el){\r\n      var raw = (el.textContent || '').trim();\r\n      if(!raw) return;\r\n\r\n      var terms = raw.split(',').map(function(s){ return s.trim(); }).filter(Boolean);\r\n\r\n      el.textContent = '';\r\n      terms.forEach(function(term, idx){\r\n        var a = document.createElement('a');\r\n        a.href = SEARCH_BASE + encodeURIComponent(term);\r\n        a.textContent = term;\r\n        a.rel = 'nofollow';\r\n        el.appendChild(a);\r\n\r\n        if(idx < terms.length - 1){\r\n          el.appendChild(document.createTextNode(', '));\r\n        }\r\n      });\r\n    });\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-644e23b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"644e23b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fe8e6b9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fe8e6b9\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ec5a50 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"1ec5a50\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article\"\r\n    data-title=\"\u201cMy Beloved Is Different from Myriads of Others\u201d.
