Unit 12 Session 3
LIVE WITH WISDOM
ECCLESIASTES 3:1-15
Key Concept:God's timing is perfect, and everything is a gift from God.
Wisdom literature in the Bible includes the books of Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Songs. This genre wasn't unique to ancient Israel but was popular throughout the ancient Near East. Nations such as Egypt and Babylon wrote down wise sayings before Israel did. In Scripture, however, the wisdom books only address one God and generally speak to human flourishing by living according to God's holy will.
As you read Ecclesiastes 3:1-15:
✞ Acknowledge that while we long to know the future, only God knows
His purpose for everything.
✞ Celebrate that God is awe-inspiring and just in all His ways.
