ECCLESIASTES 10:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Eccl 10:18Eccl 10:20
A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
The statement that a feast is made for laughter and wine gladdens life, and that money provides answers for everything, presents a material perspective on life's pleasures. Yet the aphorism's placement among warnings about folly and consequences suggests that such pleasures provide only temporary relief from deeper concerns. This verse captures a materialist outlook without endorsing it.
