NASB	Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.
AMPLIFIED 2015	Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]--yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.

Bible Question: Dear Friends:

This verse never caught my attention until I read it in NASB.

"He has also set eternity in their heart" This seems like a wonderful thought. What does it mean to have eternity in your heart? Would both unbelievers and believers have eternity in their hearts?

In Christ

Bible Answer: Hi Robert, I think that both unbelievers and believers have the possibility of having eternity in their hearts. I think of Titus 1:2 along with Ecclesiastes 3:11.

When a person is looking for the Eternal Life which God promised long ages ago, then He will become manifested in His word. This is the gift of God and His word will remain forever.

O that we all should fear (Him). Ecclesiastes 3:14 - Ecclesiastes 8:12.
