with strings of beads/ornamental chains (neck adornment)
Found in Song of Songs 1:10, this phrase describes the beloved's neck as beautiful 'with strings of beads' (בַּחֲרוּזִים). The root suggests threading or stringing, pointing to ornamental chains or strands of precious beads worn as jewelry. The context pairs this with reference to 'rows of jewels,' creating an image of layered, luxurious adornment. Spanish 'collares' (necklaces) and French 'colliers' (necklaces) interpret the function, while the Hebrew plural suggests multiple strands or types of beaded ornament.

1. sense 1 — The Song's aesthetic catalog employs specific jewelry vocabulary, moving from general beauty to particular ornaments that enhance the beloved's neck. Ancient Near Eastern iconography confirms that multiple-strand bead necklaces were common elite adornment, often with gold, carnelian, or lapis lazuli beads. The preposition 'with' indicates the means or accompaniment by which the neck appears beautiful—not inherent beauty but adorned beauty. 1×
