Verse 7 is found in chapter 9 of Ecclesiastes. The exhortation to eat, drink, dress well, and enjoy one’s spouse appears as a response to the brevity of life. Work performed during life should be done diligently because in Sheol there is no longer any work. This section does not make pleasure an absolute end, but invites people to gratefully receive the ordinary goods that God allows them to enjoy within limited existence.
