In Song 2:1, the speaker calls herself a lily — so the lilies in 2:16 are her, showing mutual belonging through the same flower imagery.

In Song 6:3, the same mutual possession phrase appears verbatim, reaffirming the beloved's exclusive bond after a brief separation.

In Song 4:5, the same 'grazing among the lilies' phrase describes the beloved's breasts, extending the pastoral metaphor to physical description.

In Song 1:7, the beloved asks where he pastures — 2:16 answers that he grazes among the lilies (herself), linking question and answer.

In Song 7:10, the woman says 'I am my beloved's' but adds 'his desire is for me'—shifting focus to his longing rather than mutual ownership.

In Song 5:16, the speaker declares 'this is my beloved' — echoing the possessive language of 2:16 but focusing on his desirability.

In Hosea 2:23, God declares reciprocal relationship — 'you are my people' and they say 'you are my God' — echoing the mutual belonging of Song 2:16.

Hebrews 8:10 echoes the mutual belonging formula 'I will be their God, they my people'—a covenant parallel to the beloved's declaration.
