Quotation zu Kohelet 3:17
אָמַ֤רְתִּֽי אֲנִי֙ בְּלִבִּ֔י אֶת־הַצַּדִּיק֙ וְאֶת־הָ֣רָשָׁ֔ע יִשְׁפֹּ֖ט הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים כִּי־עֵ֣ת לְכָל־חֵ֔פֶץ וְעַ֥ל כָּל־הַֽמַּעֲשֶׂ֖ה שָֽׁם׃
Da dachte ich bei mir, den Gerechten und den Ungerechten wird Gott richten; denn jegliches Ding und auch jegliche Tat hat seine Zeit.
Footnotes to Kohelet by Bruce Heitler
The distinction between what is worthwhile and what is destructive is often not apparent until long after the event. The outcome of our deeds is often not what we intend or anticipate; after all, the author of this book is the offspring of the union of David and Bat Sheva.
