>Philo of Alexandria
I can't find any reference from Philo to the Song of Songs, and a study of Philo's quotes from the scriptures say he made no references to the Song of Songs in any of his works:

Very strange for defenders of a second temple era allegorical interpretation of the Song of Songs as Philo is the great allegorical interpretor of Jewish scripture who more or less invents the technique.
