Did King Solomon write Ecclesiastes after all the wives?
Ecclesiastes is a book of Wisdom and is signed as if by King Solomon, and is therefore traditionally ascribed to him. However, scholars say that it could not have been written before the sixth-century BCE Babylonian Exile, and was therefore not written by King Solomon.The book contains several Aramaic words. Aramaic was a Semitic language that did not come into existence until long after the time attributed to King Solomon, so these words could not have been written by him. Also, The Persians adopted Aramaic as the lingua franca of their new empire after they defeated the Babylonians. The Jews willingly adopted Aramaic because of the Persian role in allowing them to return to Jerusalem and were the only Near Eastern nation never to adopt Greek after the Alexandrian conquests. The book also contains two Persian words thought to be original to the text. Since the Jews never came into contact with the Persians until the end of the Babylonian Exile, this is final proof that the book could not have been written before the end of the Babylonian Exile.Ecclesiastes also contains concepts that were not adopted in Judaism until the Return from the Babylonian Exile.Scholars generally believe that Ecclesiastes was written around the time of the Alexandrian conquests - long after the time of King Solomon.
Who wrote Ecclesiastes?
The Book of Ecclesiastes states it was written by Qoheleth, but this name is always translated into English as 'Preacher' or 'Ecclesiastes' and, instead, the book is traditionally attributed to King Solomon.However, the Book of Ecclesiastes contains several Aramaic words and two Persian words, so must have been written after the time of the Babylonian Exile, long after the time attributed to Solomon. Also, the Hebrew content is in a more modern form of Hebrew. The author is anonymous but is thought by scholars to have lived after the time of Alexander. Verse 9:5 is evidence that Persian ideas of immortality and resurrection had even then not been universally accepted and was still being debated: 'For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten'.Another answer from our community:Solomon is the most likely author of the book. Firstly, the author says he is the son of David who was a king of Jerusalem. Secondly, it is consistent from what is known of Solomon in that he was given to wisdom, insight, and reflection. Many of the sayings are consistent with significant lessons learned during Solomon's life. The author also claims to have sought and arranged proverbs - the Book of Proverbs states they are Solomon's.Ecclesiastes 1:1 says, "The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem," and Ecclesiastes 1:12 says, "I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem." Taken together, these statements could only mean that the author was claiming to be King Solomon. Traditionally, this authorship has been accepted by Jews and Christians.If the use of the past tense in 1:12 has any meaning, we can see that this claim was meant to be allegorical. The book contains several Aramaic words, an influence that was characteristic of late Hebrew and thus militating against authorship by Solomon. It also contains two Persian words. Most critical scholars now believe that Ecclesiastes was written around 250 BCE by a non-Hellenised intellectual, although Seow of the Anchor Bible series believes that it dates to the Persian period - shortly after the Babylonian Exile. According to this view, the author was not King Solomon.
