love, and . . . hatred, &c.--(referring to Ecc 9:1; see on Ecc 9:1). Not that these cease in a future world absolutely (Eze 32:27; Rev 22:11); but as the end of this verse shows, relatively to persons and things in this world. Man's love and hatred can no longer be exercised for good or evil in the same way as here; but the fruits of them remain. What he is at death he remains for ever. "Envy," too, marks the wicked as referred to, since it was therewith that they assailed the righteous (see on Ecc 9:1).
portion--Their "portion" was "in this life" (Psa 17:14), that they now "cannot have any more." |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| Also - They neither love, nor hate, nor envy any thing in this world, but are unconcerned in what is done under the sun. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Also their love, and their hatred - It is evident that he speaks here of the ignorance, want of power, etc., of the dead, in reference only to this life. And though they have no more a portion under the sun, yet he does not intimate that they have none anywhere else. A man threatens to conquer kingdoms, etc. He dies; what are his threats? |

1 For all this I considered [05414] in my heart [03820] even to declare [0952] all this, that the righteous [06662], and the wise [02450], and their works [05652], are in the hand [03027] of God [0430]: no man [0120] knoweth [03045] either [01571] love [0160] or hatred [08135] by all that is before [06440] them.
11 He that is unjust [91], let him be unjust [91] still [2089]: and [2532] he which is filthy [4510], let him be filthy [4510] still [2089]: and [2532] he that is righteous [1342], let him be righteous [1344] still [2089]: and [2532] he that is holy [40], let him be holy [37] still [2089].
