ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

ecclesiastes 1:9 That which has been is that which will be, And that which has been done is that which will be done. So, there is nothing new under the sun.

9. Rather, "no new thing at all"; as in Nu 11:6. This is not meant in a general sense; but there is no new source of happiness (the subject in question) which can be devised; the same round of petty pleasures, cares, business, study, wars, &c., being repeated over and over again [HOLDEN].

ecclesiastes 1:9 That which has been is that which will be, And that which has been done is that which will be done. So, there is nothing new under the sun.
