Conditions in the World

Click here to read Ecclesiastes 2.

In this chapter, the author goes on to show what reason he had to be so tired of this world and what little reason most men have for being fond of this world.

  1. There is no true happiness in humor or those things that delight the senses.
  2. He acknowledges wisdom to be useful but overrated and insufficient to make a man happy.
  3. He looks at wealth to see how far it will go toward making a man happy and concludes that those who dwell upon it, will not be happy, only those who give it little thought, will benefit from it.
