Ecclesiastes 5:3 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

For a dream cometh, &c. When men's minds are distracted and oppressed with too much business in the day, they are frequently disturbed with confused and perplexed dreams in the night. And as such dreams proceed from, and are the evidence of, a hurry of business filling the head, so many and hasty words flow from, and are a proof of, folly reigning in the heart.

Ecclesiastes 5:3

3 For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.
