Commentary on Ecclesiastes 12:10

Theological / Devotional

Acceptable words. Or, “pleasing words” (RSV), literally, “words of delight.” The author endeavored to give the treatise that literary polish that would recommend it to those for whom it was particularly written — those who consider themselves wise in the things of this world.

Upright. His endeavor to achieve a pleasing literary form had not, however, led him to compromise truth.
