Ecclesiastes - Vapor Ecclesiastes 1, 2

38 times in the book of Ecclesiastes the author uses a Hebrew word that means “Vapor” or “Breath.” Some versions translate the word to “meaningless” or “futile” but the word doesn’t carry that negative connotation in Hebrew. The author certainly goes back and forth from negative to positive as he looks at the whole of life... like we do. See if you an notice your own experience in this ancient wisdom as we struggle with deeply human questions.

  1. In Ecclesiastes 1:3 the author asks, “What benefit do people get from all the effort which they expend on earth?”He is explaining the ups and downs of life in these two chapters and all the things he thought would give him what he wanted. But it was all “Vapor.” The author is looking for “benefit?” This is the struggle we deal with around, “If I live a certain way I should get certain things or feel a certain way.” Have you struggled with this feeling of feeling like the payoff doesn’t match the effort?

  2. Have you experienced the chasing of things you though would fulfill and realized they were just smoke? Can you name things that you’ve looked to for fulfillment only to realize you couldn’t hold on to the feeling?

  3. The author talks about pursuits (accomplishments), pleasures, and escapes (a natural desire to sooth the pain). To a certain extent we all do these things but can you name your go to coping mechanism to deal with disappointment?

  4. Read Chapter 2:24-26 The author hints at something he’s going to go deeper on by the end of the book. The ability to find enjoyment is a gift from God. Where are moments of real enjoyment for you? Talk about moments that gave you great joy, comfort, or peace. These are the meaningful gifts from God.

  5. Take a moment to thank God because you were able to enjoy them. Do this out loud together so others can witness it.
