Ecc 2:12-17 – The Question of Wisdom and Folly

We also instinctively know that being wise is better than being a fool. I’d assume that you’d prefer your next-door neighbor to be a sage than a reprobate. And so, I’d be right. But is there a point where wisdom is not wise? In other words, where is the line between wisdom and foolishness?
