Ecclesiastes 7:24

Context

7:24 Whatever has happened is beyond human 1  understanding; 2 

it is far deeper than anyone can fathom. 3 

1 tn The word “human” does not appear in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

2 tn Heb “is far away.”

3 tn Heb “It is deep, deep – who can find it?” The repetition of the word “deep” emphasizes the degree of incomprehensibility. See IBHS 233-34 §12.5a.
