Unceasing oppression
Frustrating work
Out-of-whack priorities

Pointless future
Shallow religiosity
Limiting vision and mission
He was dismayed by the misery around him, the power of the
oppressors, the jealousy and envy undergirding the drive to succeed. He
declared that it was all meaningless, a chasing after the wind. Even so, he
decided that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink and find
satisfaction in his toilsome labor during the few days God has given him. For
who knows what is good for a man in life, during the few and meaningless days
he passes through like a shadow?

Jerusalem, life can bring joy, but it cannot give meaning.
From the album “Ecclesiastes” this video is scrolling
playback of a rap based on Chapters 4 – 6.
