Geneva Bible Notes (1560)

^{0 !} Slaomon, as a preacher and one that desired to instruct all in the way of saluacion, describeth the deceiuable vanities of this worlde, that mad shulde not be addicted to anie thing vnder the sunne, but rather inflamed with the desire of the heauenlie life: therefore he confuteth their opinions, which set their felicitie, wther in knowledge, or in pleasures, or in dignitie and riches, shewing that mans true felicitie consisteth in that that he is vnited with God and shal injoye his presence: so that all other things must be rejected, saue in as muche as thei further vs to atteine to this heauenlie treasure, which is sure and permanent, and can not be founde in anie other saue in God, alone.
