A bible verse is a Hellenistic work of art?

Yes, that too. First, the history of the Septuagint will reveal that (Alexandria, hellinized scribes in Egypt). Then, the history of the NIV and associated versions, histories of academics on those projects, etc. (”meaningless” vs. “vanity.” contemporary Hellenism: also see Humanism).

I’ll explain. Solomon didn’t mean that we’re no more important than animals. He meant that if we act like animals, we’ll be treated like animals. That’s more clear in the Orthodox Jewish Tanakh (Judaica Press or Mesorah Stone Edition).
