Negative Positive
Title: Scholarly, complete
Review: Robert Gordis has written a complete, if not definitive, commentary on the Book of Ecclesiastes. He was Professor of the Bible at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America for eight years and an adjunct professor of religion at Columbia University. He gives Ecclesiastes a thorough literary, philosophical, and stylistic analysis against the background of both Hebrew and Near Eastern Wisdom literature in relation to Greek and Egyptian wisdom.
