Solomon’s Summary of Wisdom

King Solomon, a great seeker of knowledge and experience, sums up the wisdom he has obtained. "Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body. Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Revere God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." ~ Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
