‏ Ecclesiastes 6:10

10. Part II begins here. Since man's toils are vain, what is the chief good? (Ec 6:12). The answer is contained in the rest of the book.

That which hath been--man's various circumstances

is named already--not only has existed, Ec 1:9; 3:15, but has received its just name, "vanity," long ago,

and it is known that it--vanity

is man--Hebrew, "Adam," equivalent to man "of red dust," as his Creator appropriately named him from his frailty.

neither may he contend, &c.--(Ro 9:20).
