What are some of the better works explaining Ecclesiastes?

I liked Sinclaire Ferguson's book ... The Pundit's Folly

It was short, very readable and well done!

to Pundit's Folly.

When all is said and done, however, I like to take the individual verses out of context as much as I can. It's more fun that way. I like a book that tells me there's no better way to spend my time than eating and drinking!

Leupold on Ecclesiastes is good. I also liked Derek Kidner, especially the introduction, in The Bible Speaks Today

Vanities and disguises have covered us, and thereby we are naked; licenciousness hath inflam'd us, and thereby we are frozen; voluptuousness hath fed us, and thereby we are sterved, the fancies and traditions of men have taught and instructed us, and thereby we are ignorant.

Edward Reynold's Commentary on Ecclesiastes

My own notes on Ecclesiastes are online at Studies in Ecclesiastes on my webpage. It is a series I taught following the death of my father about 10 years ago. It is interesting how that sort of event gives one a new paradigm on life and death.

Thanks, John.

Anyone know of any other online resources?

To put a further plug in for Edward Reynolds (Spurgeon says "he is always good" and Reynolds ranks #14 on Tony Reinke's Puritan Library Recommendations), one can either get the complete English Annotations, or get Vol. 4 of Reynolds' Works for $22.00 via Abebooks (as of this evening), or download for free his Works, including his commentary on Ecclesiastes, at http://books.google.com/

Ernst Wilhelm Hengstenberg's commentary on Ecclesiastes is also recommended by Spurgeon and, although not online as far as I can tell, is available at Amazon for $21.00.

Matthew Poole is also highly recommended.
