I'm trying to figure out how to interpret the writing. With a lot of it, was Solomon way off? I feel like if I believed a lot of the thoughts in the book, I would get some stern correcting from my pastor.
For example:
So I said to myself, “Since I will end up the same as the fool, what’s the value of all my wisdom? This is all so meaningless!” For the wise and the foolish both die. The wise will not be remembered any longer than the fool. In the days to come, both will be forgotten.
Ecclesiastes 2:15-16
We all know this isn't true, so what do we make of it along with the other things he says that are way off?
