What does the Bible say about the church as a garden?

Answered in 1 source

The church is depicted as a 'garden enclosed' in Song of Solomon, symbolizing its beauty and protection by God.

In Song of Solomon 4:12, the church is likened to a 'garden enclosed', which symbolizes its beauty, protection, and the intimate relationship between Christ and His bride. This garden is not a wilderness but a cultivated area, chosen by God and protected by His sovereign grace. Just as a gardener tends to the plants, God takes care of His church, ensuring that it thrives spiritually and produces fruits of the Spirit, such as love, joy, and peace.
