Originally published in 1904, this book presents a critical discussion of the Book of Ecclesiastes, with additional notes on select passages and an English translation. The text was written with two key aims in mind: 'firstly, to disentangle the strands which go to form the 'three-fold cord' of the writing; and secondly, to estimate the position which Koheleth occupied with regard to the religious and philosophical thought of his day'. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Ecclesiastes and biblical criticism.
