1 | Money - the answer for everything? | Ecclesiastes | Violet25 | 115662 | ||
In looking at the context of this chapter, it seems that the author is comparing the wise with the unwise. It seems like he's saying that these things (food, wine, money) are temporal things that the unwise employ to try to make themselves feel better (as contrasted with the things that provide eternal security). I think the author is using a bit of sarcasm, a deliberate exaggeration(we KNOW that money isn't the answer for everything) to make his point. "Oh yeah, money's the answer to everything, isn't it?! *wink, wink* Reference Colossians 3:1-4. | ||||||
