good in his labour
Ecclesiastes 2:24
2:24 good in his labour. This obviously is the natural viewpoint of people whose lives are centered “under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:14). In fact, such a viewpoint would have been appropriate in the world as originally created by God. He did provide abundant wholesome food and drink for all His creatures, and fruitful labor was a part of His “very good” creation. All of this would indeed have been a source of great joy to all, had sin and the curse not intervened to change everything.
