Ecclesiastes
Ecclesiastes explores the meaning of life, human toil, and the limitations of worldly pursuits. With raw honesty, the writer wrestles with vanity, mortality, and time—concluding that reverence for God and obedience are the only true path to fulfillment (Ecclesiastes 12:13). The book resonates with seekers, skeptics, and philosophers alike.
Author: Solomon – King and Reflective Philosopher
Traditionally attributed to Solomon, referred to as "the Preacher" (Hebrew: Qoheleth), the book reflects the musings of a wise king reflecting on his life. His introspective tone contrasts with the confident tone of Proverbs, suggesting a later period in Solomon’s reign.
Time Period:
Biblical: Written during Solomon’s later years (~940–930 BC)
Scholarly: Some scholars suggest a post-exilic composition due to linguistic features, though traditional view holds to Solomonic authorship.
