Ecclesiastes 7:11
Wisdom is Good with an Inheritance This section discusses the value of wisdom, especially when it is joined with an inheritance or material wealth. The commentary considers how wisdom and wealth together can benefit a person's life, and how real wisdom is more valuable than riches alone. v. 11: Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun(Ecclesiastes 7:11 a). Wisdom is a good thing, especially when it is joined with an inheritance. When a person has both wisdom and wealth, their possessions are more profitable and safely managed. Wealth without wisdom can be dangerous, leading to waste or harm. But when wealth is guided by wisdom, it becomes truly beneficial. Those who "see the sun," meaning those who are alive and active in the world, gain much more when they use both wisdom and the blessings they have received. Wisdom helps people use their resources well, for the good of themselves and others.
