TOTC 18: Ecclesiastes
The book of Ecclesiastes is probably best known for its repeated refrain that
'everything is meaningless', or 'vanity'. However, a thorough reading
demonstrates that this is not its final conclusion. Knut Heim's commentary
shows that the book is intellectually sophisticated, theologically rich,
emotionally deep - and full of humour. While it is realistic about life, it
is life-affirming, and immensely practical. It is also politically engaged,
presenting its critique of a repressive foreign regime in an entertaining and
thought-provoking way.
