Bible Answer: Hello ARSN, Have you read the entire book of Ecclesiates or studied the context of chapter 2? This would greatly aid in your understanding. The Bible Knowledge Commentary offers this insight: "Viewed in the light of the impermanence of its fruits Solomon asked whether a man’s labor in this life (under the sun; cf. comments on 1:3) was really worth it all. In the final analysis, he declared, all that really resulted from it was the expenditure of a lot of painful labor and restless activity which is futile or meaningless." [John F. Walvoord, Roy B. Zuck and Dallas Theological Seminary, The Bible Knowledge Commentary] Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
