Ecclesiastes / Question
Question source
Ecclesiastes
Ecclesiastes says, “Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour” (Ecclesiastes 4:9). It explains the practical advantages: one can help the other up, provide warmth, and offer stronger defense than being alone (Ecclesiastes 4:10–12).
9Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.
10For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn`t have another to lift him up.
11Again, if two lie together, then they have warmth; but how can one keep warm alone?
12If a man prevails against one who is alone, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
