ECCLESIASTES

Dictionary of Science, Literature and Art · 1842 · p. 15
One of the canonical books of the Old Testament, so called from the Greek word signifying a preacher. Solomon is generally supposed to be the author of this book, though various opinions have been entertained on the subject; and indeed the whole question of its author, date, and design is involved in such diflSculty, " that the labours of critics and commentators serve rather to perplex than to a ist the inquirer." (Holden on Eccles.) [s. 392]
