Summary

Solomon defines and explains joy as a purely human instinct and attempt to be self-fulfilled by material things.

He explains that nothing we do for self-fulfillment is actually fulfilling. Rather, we end up doing a bunch of stuff that is not helpful to humanity and often harmful instead.

He describes that even wisdom itself does not set us apart it only makes us capable of accomplishing “joy”.

He asserts that we are unsatisfied creatures for whom basic abilities are unvalued and we are always wanting.

He ends this chapter by saying that it is untrue to say that the good gets knowledge, wisdom and joy and the bad gather to themselves afflictions.
