Comments on: Bible Study Guide for Ecclesiastes? http://www.scripturezealot.com/2009/06/11/bible-study-guide-for-ecclesiastes/ Bible Blog - Growing Closer to God through the Scriptures Thu, 09 Feb 2012 00:48:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 By: Stan McCullars http://www.scripturezealot.com/2009/06/11/bible-study-guide-for-ecclesiastes/comment-page-1/#comment-14824 Stan McCullars Fri, 12 Jun 2009 02:43:22 +0000 http://www.scripturezealot.com/?p=2435#comment-14824 While I don't see a study guide the book is only 110 pages and is broken down into quite a few chapters. I think it would be workable for a small group. Eaton's commentary is the number two as ranked by Ligonier. About it they write: <em>Like all of the commentaries in the Tyndale series, Eaton's work is clear and concise. Eaton views Ecclesiastes as an apologetic essay. It defends the life of faith in God by detailing how terrible the alternative is. Life without God, according to Ecclesiastes, is futile. With all of the different approaches to interpreting Ecclesiastes, I find Eaton's particularly helpful. </em> While I don’t see a study guide the book is only 110 pages and is broken down into quite a few chapters.

Of it they write: <em>Derek Kidner's commentaries are always helpful, and since one of his areas of expertise is Old Testament Wisdom Literature, his commentary on Ecclesiastes is one of his best. It is a popular level work, accessible to any reader, yet it still contains profound insight and application. Highly recommended.</em> Ligonier Ministries considers Message of Ecclesiastes (Bible Speaks Today) by Derek Kidner as the top commentary on the book.
