Read Ecclesiastes 6 and then answer the following questions:
Section 1: Ecclesiastes 6:1-9
1. How does the beginning of chapter 6 expound on the end of chapter 5?
2. Which is better, quality, or quantity? From where or who do we find our satisfaction? Look up Isaiah 55.
3. Throughout Ecclesiastes, you may have noticed that meaningless things are “like chasing the wind.” Pursuing the wind, especially the hot east wind, was a metaphor in biblical times for anything that was worthless or absurd. See Hosea 12:1 for an example. How does this enhance your perception of the phrase, “like chasing the wind?” What are some examples of ways we “chase the wind” today?
