Ecclesiastes / Question
Question source
Ecclesiastes
Ecclesiastes says a person can leave the world “naked” as they came, taking nothing from their labor that they can carry away (Ecclesiastes 5:15). It presents this as a “sore evil,” reinforcing the limits of riches and the certainty of death (Ecclesiastes 5:13–17).
15As he came forth from his mother`s womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labor, which he may carry away in his hand.
