The authors who created Pirke Avot: A Modern Commentary on Jewish
Ethics and Mishlei: A Commentary on Proverbs have worked together
again to bring you a contemporary, gender-sensitive translation of
Ecclesiastes. Using the classical commentaries of Rashi, Ibn Ezra,
and others, as well as modern critical scholarship, the authors
have produced a line-by-line translation and commentary to
accompany the Hebrew text. Related essays and gleanings from other
sources are also provided. The book of Ecclesiastes, located in the
K'tuvim section of the Tanach, contains both well known and
quizzical texts, including the statements "to every thing there is
a season" and that, concerning life, "all is vanity." The question
remains for us: How can we find meaning for our lives today in this
ancient text of wisdom literature? Ideally suited for both
individual reflection and adult education, Kohelet: A Modern
Commentary on Ecclesiastes is a thoughtful and modern translation
for all to read.
