Shut Your Mouth Before God: Qoheleth's Assault on Pious Verbosity — Ecclesiastes 5:2

from Exegesis Daily · host Reuben Smith

Don’t be rash with your mouth, and don’t let your heart be hasty to utter anything before God; for God is in heaven, and you on earth. Therefore let your words be few. — The verse that reframes prayer as danger, not comfort — because God is in heaven and you are on earth.
