Ecclesiastes 12

Wesley

Ecclesiastes 12:3

Good - He who orders his affairs with discretion.

Ecclesiastes 12:4

The wise - He who is truly wise, shall be so accounted by others. Sweetness - Eloquence added to wisdom. Increaseth - Both in himself, for while a man teaches others, he improves himself; and others, who by this means are induced to hear and receive his instructions.

Ecclesiastes 12:5

The instruction - Their most grave and serious counsels are foolish.

Ecclesiastes 12:6

Teacheth - Directs him what to speak, and keeps him from speaking foolishly. Addeth - Enables him to speak learnedly and wisely.

Ecclesiastes 12:10

Diggeth up - Prosecutes his evil designs with great industry. His lips - His tongue is set on fire of hell.

Ecclesiastes 12:13

Shutteth - That his thoughts may be more intent. Moving - Which is the gesture of one whose thoughts are deeply engaged.
