ECCLESIASTES and SONG OF SONGS Wow, just reading a comparison of these two books side by side in the bible, just after Psalms and Proverbs. Ecclesiastes speaks of a life of wandering; the Song speaks of rest from wandering. Ecclesiastes tells us that one cannot obtain satisfaction through knowledge alone; the Song tells us that man can reach satisfaction only through love. Ecclesiastes relates the pursuit of all things under the sun; the Song relates specifically to the pursuit of things in Christ. In Ecclesiastes we find that the things sought for and the ways of seeking them are wrong, resulting in the conviction that all under the sun is vanity if vanities; but that which is sought after in the Song is the right thing and the way is right, bringing supreme blessedness. Wow !! The bible so awesomely put together !! ----- taken from Watchman Nees Song of Songs.
