Ecclesiastes
"The second youth"
Text: Ecclesiastes 4:15
THE TRANSITORY NATURE OF EVENTS
To become a king is not a common event. But no matter how significant an event may be, the reality is that it is still transitory in nature.
“I saw all the living who walk under the sun;
They were with the second youth who stands in his place.
There was no end of all the people over whom he was made king;
Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him.
Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.”
Ecclesiastes 4:15-16
