| Ecclesiastes 9:15 | Now there was found in it a man poor and wise, and he delivered the city by his wisdom, and no man afterward remembered that poor man. | Afterward, is not in Hebrew. The poor man was unnoticed before. (Calmet) --- Vulgate insinuates that he met with no return of gratitude, which is but too common; (Haydock) and this shews the vanity of the world. |
