Matthew Henry's Complete Bible Commentary

Ecclesiastes 11

In this chapter we have, I. A pressing exhortation to works of charity and bounty to the poor, as the best cure of the vanity which our worldly riches are subject to and the only way of making them turn to a substantial good account, Ecclesiastes 11:1-11:6. II. A serious admonition to prepare for death and judgment, and to begin betimes, even in the days of our youth, to do so, Ecclesiastes 11:7-11:10. MHBCC 671.1
