This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ecc_2:26 For [God] giveth to a man that [is] good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him that is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
Ver. 26. Wisdom and knowledge.] To get these things rightly, and to use them comfortably.
To gather and to heap up.] Converrere et congerrere, to rake and scrape together - the muckworm’s occupation.
That he may give.] As he did the Egyptians’ goods to Israel, Nabal’s to David, Haman’s to Mordecai.
