This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The sight of the eyes, i.e. the comfortable enjoyment of what a man hath; for seeing is oft put for enjoying, as Psa_34:12 Ecc_2:1 3:13, &c.
The wandering of the desire; restless and insatiable desires of what a man hath not, wherewith covetous rich men are perpetually haunted and tormented.
This, this wandering of the desire wherein most men indulge themselves,
is also vanity and vexation of spirit; is not the way to satisfaction, as they imagine, but to vexation.
