:) - Good job.

On a tangential note; one could debate whether Eccl. 1:4 is meant in a comparative sense, which the ‘but’ seems to indicate, rather than the literal sense... also, Rev. is a good book to debate about precisely because it’s the transcription of John’s vision while on Patmos and laced with metaphor/allegory as well as being prophetic-in-nature.

{I used to think I had a good handle on Revelation, but the more I read it the more “less sure” of any particular interpretation I become (pre-millennial, post-millennial, a-millennial) and the more I think “God will do what God will do” about it.}
