Ecclesiastes/Qoheleth

This commentary on Ecclesiastes/Qoheleth represents the first collaborative work on the book by two female scholars, Katharine J. Dell (University of Cambridge) and Tova L. Forti (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev). They combine diverse cultural and religious perspectives with a shared scholarly method. The authors offer a fresh translation based on the Masoretic Text and a predominantly synchronic, literary approach. Emphasising structure, style, and authorial technique, the commentary explores the philosophical and theological dimensions of Qoheleth's thought. Ecclesiastes is read as a coherent whole and interpreted within both its ancient context and modern interpretive traditions.
