George Leo Haydock, on Eccl 3:11

“He hath made all things good in their time, and hath delivered the world to their consideration, so that man cannot find out the work which God hath made from the beginning to the end.”

“Consideration. Literally, “dispute.” Hebrew and Septuagint, “heart.” (Haydock) — Pagnin, “He has implanted the desire of immortality in their hearts.” — End. If we could discover the properties of each thing, we should be in raptures; (Calmet) but as we cannot, this increases our vexation. (Menochius)”
