I, the Preacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. Ecc 1:11Ki 4:1-19 I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under the sky. It is a heavy burden that God 2 has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with. Ecc 3:10Gen 3:191Ti 4:15Ecc 8:16-17Ecc 1:17Ecc 12:12Ecc 7:25Ecc 2:23 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and behold, all is vanity and a chasing after wind.

Yes, my heart has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.” Ecc 2:91Ki 4:301Ki 10:71Ki 3:12-132Ch 1:10-122Ch 2:12Heb 5:14Psa 4:4 I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also was a chasing after wind. Ecc 2:31Th 5:21Ecc 1:13-14Ecc 2:10-12Ecc 7:23-25 For in much wisdom is much grief; and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
