Ecclesiastes 4:9
King James Version
11 Jun 2026
“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.”
טוֹב
Taste and see. David does not say understand or agree — he says taste. Towb is goodness you experience, not just believe in. God's goodness is not a theological position. It is something you encounter when you draw near to Him.
