KNOWLEDGE - Ecclesiastes


 
Knowledge

 

Ecclesiastes 1:16 I communed with my own heart, saying, “Lo, I have gotten me great wisdom above all that were before me in Jerusalem; yes, my heart has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.

Ecclesiastes 1:18 For in much wisdom is much grief, and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow.

Ecclesiastes 2:21 For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, and with knowledge, and with skillfulness; yet to a man that has not labored therein shall he leave it for his portion.  This also is vanity and a great evil.

Ecclesiastes 2:26 For to the man that pleases Him God gives wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; but to the sinner He gives travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that pleases God.  This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

Ecclesiastes 7:12 For wisdom is a defense, even as money is a defense; but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom preserves the life of him that has it.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatsoever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, where you go.

Ecclesiastes 12:9  And further, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yes, he pondered, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.

 

 

Seek

 

Ecclesiastes 1:13 And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven: it is a sore travail that God has given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

Ecclesiastes 3:6  a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

Ecclesiastes 3:7  a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

Ecclesiastes 3:8  a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:15 That which is has been long ago, and that which is to be has long ago been, and God seeks again that which is passed away.

Ecclesiastes 7:28 which my soul still seeks, but I have not found: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

Ecclesiastes 8:17 then I beheld all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because however much a man labor to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yes moreover, though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.

 

 

Search

 

Ecclesiastes 1:13 And I applied my heart to seek and to search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven: it is a sore travail that God has given to the sons of men to be exercised therewith.

Ecclesiastes 2:3  I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, until I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

Ecclesiastes 7:25 I turned about, and my heart was set to know and to search out, and to seek wisdom and the reason of things, and to know that wickedness is folly, and that foolishness is madness.

 

 

Book, Study

 

Ecclesiastes 12:12 And furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.
