ecclesiastes 8:7 For he knoweth not that which shall be: for who can tell him when it shall be?

ecclesiastes 8:7 If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?

7. he--the sinner, by neglecting times (for example, "the accepted time, and the day of salvation, 2Co 6:2), is taken by surprise by the judgment (Ec 3:22; 6:12; 9:12). The godly wise observe the due times of things (Ec 3:1), and so, looking for the judgment, are not taken by surprise, though not knowing the precise "when" (1Th 5:2-4); they "know the time" to all saving purposes (Ro 13:11).

ecclesiastes 8:7 If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?
