Ecclesiastes 6 Commentary

There are severe consequences to squandering God’s gifts.

Anyone who wastes the opportunity of God’s blessing is worse off than one who was never born at all.

Trying to find happiness through satisfying appetites is futile. It is better, more effective, and more fulfilling, to maintain an external focus rather than be controlled by internal desires.

A full understanding of the reality of humanity resides with God alone.  Apart from God, any attempt to explain the meaning of existence is futile.
