DAY 10 OF 12

ECCLESIASTES 10

DILIGENCE, WISDOM, AND DISCERNMENT

Like the book of Proverbs, this chapter offers advice regarding diligence, wisdom, and discernment. The Teacher compares foolishness to perfume that has been infested with bugs, ruined, and stenching, having a stronger and more negative effect than wisdom. Someone who sharpens their tools in advance doesn’t have to use as much strength as someone with a dull knife, so be prepared and don’t be lazy. Bread and wine can make people glad, and money can solve a lot of problems, so be a good steward of what you have been given. Be careful of talking negatively about someone, as it will likely get back to them.
