The LXX adds “Israel” in 1:1 to harmonize with 1:12 ; however, the MT makes sense as it stands. Apart from David, only Solomon was “king over Israel in Jerusalem” – unless the term “Israel” ( יִשְׂרָאֵל , yisra ’ el ) in 1:12 is used for Judah or the postexilic community. Solomon would fit the description of the author of this book, who is characterized by great wisdom ( 1:13, 16 ), great wealth ( 2:8 ), numerous servants ( 2:7 ), great projects ( 2:4-6 ), and the collection, editing and writings of many proverbs ( 12:9-10 ). All of this generally suggests Solomonic authorship. However, many scholars deny Solomonic authorship on the basis of linguistic and historical arguments.","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Ecclesiastes%201%3A1/3"}

The term “toil” is used in a pejorative sense to emphasize that the only thing that man obtains ultimately from all his efforts is weariness and exhaustion. Due to sin, mankind has been cursed with the futility of his labor that renders work a “toilsome” task ( Gen 3:17-19 ). Although it was not yet revealed to Qoheleth, God will one day deliver the redeemed from this plight in the future kingdom when man’s labor will no longer be toilsome, but profitable, fulfilling, and enjoyable ( Isa 65:17-23 ).","source_note_position":4,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Ecclesiastes%201%3A3/4"}
