righteous over much
Ecclesiastes 7:16
7:16 righteous over much. This admonition is not a warning against true righteousness, wherein Christ Himself is our example (I Peter 2:21), but against self-righteousness or ostentatiousness in one’s goodness. Neither is it a warning against true wisdom, but against pride in intellectual achievement.
