ECCLESIASTES (CHAPTER 11)

ECCLESIASTES WAS WRITTEN TO THE FLESH MAN.

IT WILL HELP YOU LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT... THE WAY GOD INTENDED TO FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME.

Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast thy bread upon the waters (UPON THE SURFACE OF) : for thou shalt find it after many days (THE PROFIT OR RESULT OF IT).

THE BREAD IS SYMBOLIC OF THE BREAD OF LIFE = CHRIST.

WATERS IS SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE, NATIONS (REV. 17:15).

SHARE WITH PLANTING SEEDS.YOU NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME BY PLANTING SEEDS. IT'S GOING TO COME BACKTO YOU SOONER OR LATER.

11:2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight (AN IDIOMATIC PHRASE DENOTING SEVERAL OR MANY); for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.

SHARE WHAT YOU HAVE WITH PEOPLE.

11:3 If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.

THAT'S NATURE AT WORK...REPEAT OF LIFE OVER AND OVER.

TREES ARE SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE.

11:4 He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.

THE PLOUGHING MUST BE DONE WHEN THE EARLY RAINS HAVE COME, EVEN IN THE FACE OF STORM; OTHERWISE THERE WILL BE NO REAPING AFTER THE LATTER RAINS.

IN OTHER WORDS, DON'T BE A WORRIER AND WAIT UNTIL EVERYTHING IS EXACTLY RIGHT TO SOW. LEARN GOD'S LAW, LIKE THE LAW OF GRAVITY AND THE LAW OF JETSTREAM, TRUST GOD AND USE HIS WISDOM.

11:5 As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God Who maketh all.

YOU DON'T KNOW BUT GOD KNOWS.

IT'S AN AWESOME THING THE CHILD THAT GROWS IN YOUR WOMB.

11:6 In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.

IN OTHER WORDS, GO FOR IT AND PLOW DEEP.

TRUST HIM...HE EXPECTS THE BEST FROM YOU.

11:7 Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun:

THE SUN HELPS THE PHYSICAL BODY TO BE HEALTHY.

11:8 But if a man live many years, and rejoice in them all; yet let him remember the days of darkness; for they shall be many. All that cometh is vanity.

BE PREPARED FOR BOTH...THERE WILL BE UPS AND DOWNS IN THIS LIFE. GOD WILL HELP YOU THROUGH THE BAD TIMES AND HE WILL FIND YOU A WAY OUT

(I COR.10:13).

11:9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment.

ENJOY YOUR YOUTH BUT ALSO PLEASE GOD BECAUSE YOU WILL BE JUDGED.

11:10 Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil (SADNESS) from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity.

DON'T GRIEVE...DON'T WASTE IT.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES (PART TEN)

ECLLESIASTES WAS WRITTEN BY KING SOLOMON AND ADDRESSES THE MAN THAT WALKS UNDER THE SUN (FLESH MAN).

CHAPTER TALKS ABOUT GOD'S WISDOM, WHICH IS BETTER THAN REPUTATION AND POWER...THE FOOL HAS NO WISDOM AND HIS WORDS DESTROY HIMSELF.

Ecclesiastes 10:1 Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savor (FLIES THAT BRING OR PRODUCE DEATH, ARE THAT WHICH WILL CAUSE THE OINTMENT TO STINK AND FERMENT.): so doth a little folly (STUPIDITY) him that is in reputation for wisdom and honor (SO DOES STUPIDITY CAUSE HIM THAT IS IN REPUTATION FOR WISDOM AND HONOR TO SENT FORTH AN OFFENSIVE SAVOR).

10:2 A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left.

10:3 Yea, also when he that is a fool walketh by the way, his wisdom faileth him, and he saith to everyone that he is a fool (SILLY).

10:4 If the spirit of the ruler rise up against thee, leave not thy place; for yielding pacifieth great offences.

BE VERY PATIENT AND REASON WITH HIM.

GENTLENESS PREVENTS GREATER OUTRAGES.

10:5 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler:

10:6 Folly is set in great dignity (IN MANY HIGH POSITIONS), and the rich (IN WISDOM) sit in low place.

10:7 I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.

IN OTHER WORDS, CHILDREN ARE IN CHARGE.

10:8 He that diggeth a pit (SET A TRAP) shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.

YOU ARE GOING TO GET BIT IF YOU HARM PEOPLE...USE WISDOM.

10:9 Whoso removeth stones (LANDMARK) shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby.

USE COMMON SENSE.

10:10 If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.

10:11 Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is not better.

SOMEONE WHO LEADS YOU TO FALSE TEACHING IS NOT BETTER THAN THE ONES WHO HYPNOTIZE SNAKES AND ARE BIT.

10:12 The words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but the lips of a fool (A SILLY MAN) will swallow up himself.

A FOOL CAN'T HIDE...HE IS SILLY AND LAZY...HE DOES NOT WANT TO SHARPEN HIS MIND.

10:13 The beginning of the words of his mouth is foolishness: and the end of his talk is mischievous madness.

10:14 A fool also is full of words: a man cannot tell what shall be; and what shall be after him, who can tell him?

A FOOL THINKS HE KNOWS EVERYTHING.

10:15 The labor of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.

IN OTHER WORDS, HE DOESN'T HAVE A GOOD JUDGMENT.

10:16 Woe to thee, O land, when thy king is a child, and thy princes eat in the morning !

IF YOU HAVE A CHILDLIKE GOVERNMENT FEASTING IN THE MORNING IS BAD.

YOU WORK IN THE MORNING, FEASTING SUPPOSE TO BE AT NIGHT.

10:17 Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles (NOBLES HAVE A LOT OF WISDOM), and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

10:18 By much slothfulness (LAZINESS) the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through.

THE BUILDING WILL CAVE IN IF YOU DON'T TAKE CARE OF IT.

10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things (WHEN YOU PROPERLY TAKE CARE OF YOUR BUSINESS).

10:20 Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.

IN OTHER WORDS, DO NOT GOSSIP.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES (CHAPTER NINE)

ECCLESIASTES IS WRITTEN BY SOLOMON AND IT HELPS US TO DEAL WITH EVERY DAY LIFE. IT HELPS US TO ENJOY LIFE TO THE FULLEST.

Ecclesiastes 9:1 For all this I considered in my heart even to declare all this, that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God: no man knoweth either love or hatred by all that is before them (THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT).

YOU ARE IN A GOOD SHAPE IF HE IS IN YOU. BUT YOU ARE IN TROUBLE IF HE IS NOT.

9:2 All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean; to him that sacrificeth, and to him that sacrificeth not: as is the good, so is the sinner; and he that sweareth, as he that feareth and oath.

GOOD OR BAD THE FLESH IS GOING TO DIE.

9:3 This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

THE FLESH DIES... LOOK FORWARD TO ETERNITY BECAUSE THAT'S YOUR REAL HOME.

9:4 For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

AS LONG AS YOU ARE ALIVE THERE IS HOPE FOR REPENTANCE.

WHEN THE LION DIES HE IS NOT THE KING OF THE JUNGLE ANYMORE.

9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they anymore a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

THE FLESH WON'T BE REMEMBERED. YOU STEP INTO THIS BEAUTIFUL SPIRITUAL BODY. THE SPIRITUAL SELF IS THE MEMORY.

9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they anymore a portion forever in anything that is done under the sun.

WHEN YOU DIE THERE IS NO MORE REWARD...IT'S ALL IN THE BOOK OF LIFE.

9:7 Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

ENJOY YOUR LIFE.

9:8 Let thy garments be always white (PURE); and let thy head lack no ointment.

WE ALL FALL SHORT...DO THE BEST YOU CAN TO STAY PURE.

9:9 Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which He hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labor which thou takest under the sun.

THE GREATEST GIFT IN THE FLESH HE CAN GIVE YOU IS A GOOD SPOUSE.

9:10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

ENJOY YOUR LIFE AND DO THE BEST YOU CAN TO IMPROVE YOURSELF...DO IT WHILE YOU ARE ABLE, AND HAVE TIME TO DO IT.

9:11 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

9:12 For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so are the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO DIE BUT YOU WILL...FLESH DIES.

9:13 This wisdom have I seen also under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:

WISDOM COMES FROM GOD.

9:14 There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it:

9:15 Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.

NO ONE SEEMED TO APPRECIATE HIM, BUT GOD GOD DID NOT FORGET HIM.

9:16 Then said I, 'Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.'

9:17 The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.

IT IS FAR BETTER TO PLEASE GOD THAN TO PLEASE MEN.

9:18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war (GOD'S WISDOM. PROVERBS 1:7): but one sinner destroyeth much good.

YOU NEED TO USE GOD'S WISDOM TO DISCERN GOOD FROM BAD. A SINNER CAN CAUSE YOU TO GO DOWNHILL IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES (CHAPTER EIGHT)

ECCLESIASTES WAS WRITTEN TO THE MAN UNDER THE SUN (FLESH MAN).

IT TEACHES US HOW TO LIVE A HAPPY LIFE WHILE IN THE FLESH.

Ecclesiastes 8:1 Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing (WHO IS LIKE HIM THAT KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS THINGS)? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed (HIS FACE WOULD NOT BE GLOOMY. WISDOM COMES FROM GOD).

8:2 I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.

8:3 Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.

DO NOT DEPART FROM GOD AND PUSH OFF INTO REBELLION.

8:4 Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, 'What doest thou?'

THE TRUE KING IS GOD AND THERE IS POWER IN HIS WAY.

8:5 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.

8:6 Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.

THERE IS EVIL UPON HIM IF YOU DON'T DISCERN TIME AND JUDGMENT.

8:7 For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be ?

GOD CAN TELL YOU IF YOU ASK FOR HIS DIRECTION.

8:8 There is no man that hath power over the spirit (WIND) to retain the spirit (WIND); neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge (NOT GETTING OUT OF IT) in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it.

YOU CAN'T CONTROL THE WIND AND YOU CAN'T CONTROL WHEN YOU WILL DIE.

8:9 All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.

IT CAN BE A RULER THAT HAS COMPASSION AND YOU CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.

8:10 And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity.

IN THE FUNERAL OF THE WICKED THEY ONLY SAY THE GOOD THINGS HE HAD DONE, NOT THE BAD. THIS IS EMPTINESS, BECAUSE HE IS GOING TO BE JUDGED BY GOD AND HE WON'T GET AWAY FROM THE BAD THINGS HE HAS DONE.

8:11 Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

CONSEQUENCE OF GOD'S SUSPENDED JUDGMENT.

JUSTICE NEEDS TO BE SPEEDY, NOT WAIT YEARS BEFORE SOMEONE IS PERSECUTED.

8:12 Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear (LOVE) God, which fear before Him:

LOVING GOD BRINGS WISDOM.

8:13 But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall be prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not God.

YOU HAVE NO SHADOW IN DARKNESS.

IN OTHER WORDS, GOD WILL TAKE THE WICKED OUT SPIRITUALLY.

8:14 There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there be just men, unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked; again, there be wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous: I said this is also vanity.

IT SEEMS THAT WICKED MEN GET AHEAD.

IT'S NOT TRUE BECAUSE THEY WILL CEASE TO EXIST AFTER JUDGMENT.

THEY ARE LIKE DEAD MEN WALKING.

THIS LIFE IS SHORT...IT'S NOT OUR TRUE HOME.

8:15 Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labor the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.

YOUR FACE SHINES WHEN IT'S MERRY. ENJOY THE LIFE GOD HAS GIVEN YOU.

HE WANTS YOU TO BE HAPPY.

8:16 When I applied mine heart to know wisdom, and to see the business (TRAVAIL) that is done upon the earth: (for also there is that neither day nor night seeth sleep with his eyes:)

TRAVAIL IS EDUCATIONAL THAT TEACHES YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM IT.

8:17 Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun; because though a man labor to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea farther; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.

WITHOUT GOD'S HELP YOU CANNOT FIND IT. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD'S WISDOM TO FIND THE ANSWER TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES (CHAPTER SEVEN)

CONTINUING WITH THIS AMAZING BOOK THAT TELLS YOU HOW TO HAVE A HAPPY AND JOYFUL LIFE WHILE LIVING IN THE FLESH.

Ecclesiastes 7:1 A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth.

YOU LIVE RIGHT AND YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

7:2 It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.

WHY IS THAT? BECAUSE IN THE HOUSE OF MOURNING YOU CAN LEARN MORE THINGS ABOUT GOD THAN ANYWHERE ELSE. SOME PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT GOD FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A HOUSE OF MOURNING.

7:3 Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.

YOU GAIN EXPERIENCE BY THE NEGATIVE PARTS OF YOUR LIFE.

7:4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth (PLEASURE).

LIFE BEGINS WITH DEATH. SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE.

OUR REAL HOME IS IN HEAVEN WITH GOD. WE ARE JUST PASSING THROUGH IN THIS FLESH LIFE.

7:5 It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools (HEAR THE PRAISE OF FOOLS) .

A FOOL KNOWS NOTHING.

7:6 For as the crackling (SAME WORD AS VOICE) of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity.

IT MAKES A LOT OF NOISE AND SMOKE BUT IT DOESN'T LAST.

7:7 Surely oppression (THE ACT OF OPPRESSING) maketh a wise man mad; and a gift (BRIBE) destroyeth the heart (SOUL).

7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

BE PATIENT IN SPIRIT...PRIDE TOOK SATAN DOWN.

7:9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.

BE PATIENT.

7:10 Say not thou, 'What is the cause that the former days were better than these?' for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this.

7:11 Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun.

ENJOY YOUR INHERITANCE.

WISDOM IS AS GOOD AS RICHES, AND MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TO THEM THAT SEE THE SUN (ARE ALIVE).

7:12 For wisdom is a defense (A SHADOW THAT PROTECTS YOU), and money is a defense: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life (FUTURE LIFE) to them that have it.

7:13 Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which He hath made crooked?

7:14 In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider God also hath set the one over against the other, to the end that man should find nothing after him.

THERE IS A REASON GOD MADE THINGS.

THERE ARE GOOD TIMES, AND THERE ARE BAD TIMES. DON'T GET ALL SHOOK UP...HE IS ALWAYS WITH YOU AND HE IS GOING TO BUILD YOU UP AGAIN.

7:15 All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.

IT WOULD SEEM LIKE IT'S TOUGH BUT IT'S GOING TO WORK OUT FINE.

7:16 Be not righteous over much (DEPENDING ON THE MERIT OF GOOD WORKS); neither make thyself over wise (BEYOND WHAT IS NECESSARY): why shouldest thou destroy thyself (MAKE YOURSELF LONELY) ?

7:17 Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time ?

WATCH WHAT YOU DO...BE NOT WICKED AT ALL. FOR VIOLATION OF NATURE'S LAWS SURELY END IN PREMATURE DEATH.

7:18 It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from this withdraw not thine hand: for he that feareth God shall come forth of them all (MAKE HIS WAY WITH BOTH).

7:19 Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city.

7:20 For there is not a just man upon the earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.

WE ALL FALL SHORT IN THE FLESH...NOBODY IS PERFECT.

7:21 Also take no heed unto all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee:

GOSSIP AGAINST YOU.

7:22 For oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others.

YOU ALSO HAVE TALKED ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE BEFORE.

7:23 All this have I proved by wisdom: I said, "I will be wise;" but it was far from me.

IF YOU THINK YOU ARE WISE ON YOUR OWN AND NOT FROM GOD.

7:24 That which is afar off, and exceeding deep, who can find it out ?

GOD'S ELECT CAN. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE EYES TO SEE AND CAN CAN SEE DEEP IN THE MYSTERIES OF GOD.

7:25 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness:

I GAVE ALL MY ATTENTION IN ORDER TO KNOW THE REASON OR CAUSE OF FOLLY'S WICKEDNESS, AND THE MADNESS OF FOLLY.

7:26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.

SHE IS MYSTERY BABYLON. ONLY GOD'S ELECT WILL ESCAPE FROM HER DECEPTION.

7:27 Behold, this have I found," saith the preacher, "counting one by one, to find out the account (TO CHECK PEOPLE OUT):

7:28 Which yet my soul (I MYSELF) seeketh, but I find not: one man (CHRIST, YOU PRAY AND YOU WANT TO BE IN HIM) among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

7:29 Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they (MANKIND) have sought out many inventions (DEVICES).

THIS VERSE IS ADMITTEDLY THE INSPIRED TRUTH OF GOD...STAY WITH GOD'S WORD.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES (PART SIX)

ECCLESIASTES WAS WRITTEN TO THE MAN UNDER THE SUN (THE FLESH MAN).

THIS BOOK TEACHES YOU HOW TO BE HAPPY WHILE YOU ARE IN THE FLESH.

Ecclesiastes 6:1 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:

THE EVIL IS THE HARDSHIP MEN HAVE TO ENDURE SOME TIMES IN THIS FLESH LIFE.

6:2 A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honor, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity (EMPTINESS), and it is an evil disease.

IT IS AN EVIL DISEASE IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY FOR ALL THE RICHES AND WEALTH GOD HAS GIVEN YOU AND WANT MORE. IT'S CALLED GREED.

6:3 If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good (JOY), and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he.

A MISCARRIAGE WOULD BE BETTER TO SOMEONE WHO CANNOT BE HAPPY WITH GOD'S BLESSINGS, BUT THINK EVERYTHING IS A BURDEN.

6:4 For he cometh with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness.

AN EMPTY PERSON WILL NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF THE DAY.

6:5 Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known anything: this hath more rest than the other.

A MISCARRIAGE WILL BE BETTER IF YOU CAN'T ENJOY YOUR BLESSINGS.

6:6 Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good (DOES NO GOOD): do not all go to one place ?

EVEN IF HE LIVED A THOUSAND YEARS HE HAS NO JOY IN LIFE ; HE IS WALKING IN DARKNESS.

WE ALL GOING TO GO IN THE SAME PLACE (HEAVEN). BUT IF YOU DON'T HAVE GOD IN YOU YOU WON'T STAY THERE.

6:7 All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

THE LABOR FOR THE FLESH MAN IS ONLY GOING TO FEED HIS PHYSICAL SELF, NOT THE SPIRIT. WITHOUT THE SPIRITUAL SELF THERE IS NOT COMPLITNESS.

6:8 For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?

THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM IS GOD (PROVERBS 1:7).

A WISE PERSON FEEDS HIS SPIRITUAL SELF.

6:9 Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit (CHASING THE WIND).

DON'T BE A DREAMER WHO CAN NEVER SEE REALITY; BE RESPONSIBLE.

LOOK AT THE WORD AND BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS.

6:10 That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is man (CLAY, FLESH): neither may he contend with Him That is mightier than he.

YOU ARE MADE OUT OF CLAY. YOU CANNOT OVERCOME GOD WHO MADE YOU FROM THAT CLAY.

6:11 Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?

6:12 For who knoweth what is good for man in his life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow ? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun (HE DIES AND GOES BACK TO THE FATHER. HAVING ETERNAL LIFE DEPENDS IF YOU HAVE GOD IN YOU)?

WHEN YOU WALK IN THE LIGHT YOU HAVE A SHADOW. YOU DON'T HAVE A SHADOW IF YOU WALK IN DARKNESS.

CHRIST IS THE LIGHT AND WITHOUT HIM THERE IS DARKNESS.

GOD BLESS
