Ecclesiastes

The Preacher
Book • 2023
Ecclesiastes is a philosophical and theological reflection on human existence and the meaning of life.

It is presented through the voice of Qohelet (the Preacher), who questions the doctrine of retributive justice and observes that human endeavors are often futile and temporary.

The book emphasizes the inevitability of death, the limitations of human wisdom, and the dangers of materialism and hedonism.

It concludes by advising readers to fear God and keep His commandments as the foundation of true happiness and purpose.
