Probably one of the least-read books of the Bible, the Old Testament book of Ecclesiastes seeks to tackle the big issues of life and its meaning. At first the book can appear a depressing read, full of complaints about the meaninglessness and the monotony of life. But ecclesiastes is relevant to every generation as it looks at the meaning of such things as work, pleasure, friendship and wisdom. We uncover a perhaps surprising message that our lives do have meaning – if we look to the one ‘above the sun’.
