The author of Ecclesiastes was searching for lasting value in life but couldn't find any "under the sun." When a Christian starts reading Ecclesiastes, the first reaction is often "This sure is negative and discouraging." Life for a Christian runs on two simultaneous tracks, ordinary daily life "under the sun" and life in the Kingdom of God. Under the Sun and in the Kingdom: A Devotional Commentary on Ecclesiastes combines the passage-by-passage teaching of Ecclesiastes with corresponding New Testament lessons. This approach will appeal to those who like a verse-by-verse style of devotional Bible study where comments are based on points from a book of Scripture in sequence. Instead of analyzing philosophy or theology, Under the Sun and in the Kingdom: A Devotional Commentary on Ecclesiastes presents practical applications of the message of Ecclesiastes and the Kingdom of God with a devotional slant. The Christian Standard Bible, a modern translation by evangelical scholars, is the primary translation. Features include translation notes, Bible cross references, and an index of all Bible references and section titles.
