Today is our first day exploring the book of Ecclesiastes. This book is traditionally attributed to King Solomon, though some scholars debate this based on linguistic evidence. The title “Ecclesiastes” translates to “Preacher” or “Teacher” and originates from the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. The book’s inclusion in the Old Testament has been debated because of its existential tone and lack of traditional religious themes. Ecclesiastes addresses the skepticism of those who doubt or deny God's existence, presenting the despair and purposelessness of life without faith. The text underscores that without God, life is fleeting and meaningless. Today’s episode contrasts worldly and biblical perspectives on life’s meaning, emphasizing the importance of recognizing God's presence. While secular views offer transient purposes, worshiping God provides an ultimate purpose. We conclude by stressing the importance of understanding and worshiping God, as many in the secular world miss the profound essence and purpose of life.
