Show Notes

The Hebrew word translated throughout Ecclesiastes as “preacher” comes from a word which also means “collector” or “convener.” Some other Bible versions translate it as “Teacher.” This Preacher is a collector of sayings, he is the son of David, he is a king in Jerusalem, and he imparts knowledge to his people. We explore several of these sayings throughout the book, beginning with Ecclesiastes 1:1 and ending with Ecclesiastes 12:14.
