Possession Without Enjoyment · Ecclesiastes 6
Story guide: An unoccupied small folded cloth lies in deep shade beside a long shadow, restrained stillbirth metaphor without a depicted body. Qoheleth contrasts an unsatisfied long life with the rest of the stillborn.
Open this scene in the reader →3If a man fathers a hundred children and lives many years—however many the days of his years may be—and his appetite is not satisfied with good and he has no burial, I say that the stillborn child is better off than he.
