For when you see different things, your mind<br/>will be troubled by many fears throughout your night's rest, or aroused by<br/>promises, you despise those things that are dream-like. You should only fear God. For he, who believes in dreams, gives himself<br/>over to vanities and nonsense. Another<br/>meaning of this passage is, since I have said and admonished, \"you should<br/>not let your mouth bring guilt on your flesh\", and to seek this or that<br/>excuse; I introduce this now, since in the dream of that life, and in the<br/>appearance, shade, cloud in which we live, we are able to find many things,<br/>which seem true to life to us and excuse our sins. Therefore I advise that you beware that<br/>alone, lest you think God is absent, but fear Him, and know He is present in<br/>all your toil, and do not force yourself to be hidden in free will, but want<br/>whatever it is that you do.<br/><i>— Commentary on Ecclesiastes</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"7f595bd0df98978fdb03d240f8fbb0d0e0dbb0f788d1ec345293e7cec80e8585","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":4151,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"a5bee6fbfdd1e0463e9bb63f94683393b17a152366a6170a1d3e275ef7c84715","translator":null,"work":null}
