NASB | Ecclesiastes 12:6 Remember Him before the silver cord is broken and the golden bowl is crushed, the pitcher by the well is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed; |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ecclesiastes 12:6 Earnestly remember your Creator before the silver cord [of life] is broken, or the golden bowl is crushed, or the pitcher at the fountain is shattered and the wheel at the cistern is crushed; |
Bible Question (short): Parallels to the silver cord, etc. |
Question (full): I know that these verses are very obscure, but does anyone know of any parallel passages either in the Bible or (horror of horrors) in ancient myth or tradition (obviously near the same place and time period as Solomon) which might give light on their meaning? And is there any other scripture which backs up the AMP's interpretation of these objects? |
