Ecclesiastes and Something New Under The Sun - A Table in the Mist - Part 2 of 3

Ecclesiastes and Something New Under The Sun 

A Table in the Mist

Part 2 of 3

by Dave Friedrich

Theme Weekend: Nov. 2, 2019

What are we supposed to do with this strange and wonderful book? What kind of wisdom is this? And how are we to understand its place within the Bible and its fulfillment in Christ? These will be our guiding questions as we look at three major themes of Ecclesiastes: vapor, joy and a different kind of fear.

Theme Two: Joy

The Assembler declares that everything is vapor, but he also sees “a table in the mist,” with food and drink and other good gifts from God that we are meant to enjoy. He says, in fact, there is nothing better than when God enables us to see and receive what is good. Is this true? And can we find this joy even in the mist of the wilderness?
