"The laughter of the fool"
Text: Ecclesiastes 7:6
THE LAUGHTER OF THE FOOL
The word “fool” in the Scriptures does not refer to a person who suffers from mental deficiency. The Book of Proverbs defines the fool as one who has rejected wisdom (Proverbs 1:20-33).
“For like the crackling of thorns under a pot,
So is the laughter of the fool.
This also is vanity.”
Ecclesiastes 7:6
