Part II begins here. Since man’s toils are vain, what is the chief good? (Ecc 6:12). The answer is contained in the rest of the book.

is named already - not only has existed, Ecc 1:9; Ecc 3:15, but has received its just name, “vanity,” long ago,

and it is known that it - vanity

is man - Hebrew, “Adam,” equivalent to man “of red dust,” as his Creator appropriately named him from his frailty.

neither may he contend, etc. - (Rom 9:20).
