In the 8th chapter from the book of Ecclesiastes, it starts out with wisdom once again and how wonderful it is to analyze and interpret things.
Wisdom is spoken about a lot in this book and something not to be taken lightly.
We look up to those who are wise, those whom God has given authority.
In verse 9, the author of the book stated that people have been given the power to do harm to one another, to be wicked. When a crime is not punished right away, people feel safe to do so more often--that is surely reflective of our society last summer when violent riots occurred across many cities in the United States.
The wicked do not prosper, and we should always fear and revere the Lord. Most seem to only seek out the Lord in times of bad. But it is said to always seek out the Lord, even in good times.
