Ecclesiastes 6:5 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

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

This - yet it.

Hath more rest than the other - than the toiling, gloomy miser. The more unenviable is the state of the embryo, the worse is the misery of the covetous rich man. It has "rest" from suffering: he has no rest. He is to be pitied, not envied.

Ecclesiastes 6:5

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