It's from a passage in the Bible.
Ephesians 5:22-24:
-- Jesus
My mom used to force us to go to church all the time, but she finally stopped when the pastor did a sermon on that one.
And then there’s Proverbs 5:19…
Even the ancient Levant had its furries!
I think that comparing breasts to deer was probably something of a poetic convention then. I believe that there's something in Solomon along the same lines.
goes to investigate
Yeah.
Song of Songs 4:5:
Song of Songs 7:3:
That was written by a human, not God.
Ah, yes, but a divinely-inspired human, no doubt, acting on God's will to relay His message.

Like I said, written by a human. The rest, like the entire Bible, or even religion itself, is also a human construct.
Written by a schizophrenic human
Maybe, but a lot was written by neolithic goatherders telling stories to pass the time, in an age before Netflix. One guy had a good aptitude for making up good stories, and they got passed down.
I hear you….
Jesus christ.
