Ecclesiastes 6:5 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He hath not seen the sun; he never beheld the light, and therefore it is not grievous to him to want it; whereas the covetous man saw that light was very pleasant, and therefore the loss of it was irksome to him. Nor known any thing; hath had no knowledge, sense, or experience of any thing, whether good or evil. Hath more rest, because he is perfectly free from all those encumbrances and vexatious to which the covetous man is long exposed.

Ecclesiastes 6:5

5 Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other.
