Search The Scriptures —Study 3 — Ecclesiastes 4:9 – 6:12

Study 3 From the Book of Ecclesiastes is: Ecclesiastes 4:9 – 6:12


        1-    What are the blessings of friendship described in 4:9-12? How does this apply in the spiritual life? See, e., g., Mt. 18:19, 20; Lk. 10:1
         2-    What does 5:1-7 teach concerning worship, in respect to (a) the right attitude of spirit, (b) words spoken in God’s presence, and (c) the importance of fulfilling vows?
         3-    What is the teaching of 5:8-6:12 regarding money and the evils it brings?
Notes
             1    -    5:1 ‘Guard your steps’: i.,e., ‘Newer enter God’s house carelessly’.
             2-    5:3 As cares and labours cause a man to dream, so do many words in worship give rise to folly.
             3-    5:20 ‘Then he will never brood over the fewness of his days’
             4-    6:10, 11 ‘Whatever happens has been determined long ago, and what man is has been ordained of old; he cannot argue with One mightier than himself’ The meaning is that much talking against God’s dealings is profitless.
