Introduction to The Book of Ecclesiastes - “When Life Seems Senseless”

April 4, 2024 • Pastor Ron Brav • Ecclesiastes

It’s been said that Ecclesiastes is one of the strangest books in the Bible, and it is very, very different from the book of Proverbs. If we try to read Ecclesiastes like Proverbs, treating individual verses as independent of each other and pulling them out of context, we can come up with some very “un-Bible-like” statements. Ecclesiastes is very similar to Job in the respect that the answer to the search does not come until the end of the book, so we must persevere to the final chapter before we can hope to grasp what the author is truly saying to us about life.
