Ecclesiastes 6:1 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it
is common among men:
2 A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he
wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not
power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it
is an evil disease.
3 If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that
the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also
that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is
better than he.
4 For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name
shall be covered with darkness.
5 Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this
hath more rest than the other.
6 Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he
seen no good: do not all go to one place?
7 All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the
appetite is not filled.
8 For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that
knoweth to walk before the living?
9 Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the
desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit.
10 That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is
man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he.
11 Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is
man the better?
12 For who knoweth what is good for man in this life, all
the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man
what shall be after him under the sun?
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
