Verse 15 is found in chapter 1 of Ecclesiastes. Qohelet begins by examining his own intellectual pursuit. He has observed the activities carried out under the sun and discovers that human beings cannot fully control what happens. The repetition of generations and events, together with the inability to make everything crooked straight, leads to a sober conclusion about the limits of knowledge. Even wisdom has a cost: understanding reality more deeply also reveals how much pain and frustration it contains.
