Ecclesiastes 7:3
King James Version
11 Jun 2026
“Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.”
Hebrew word study
טוֹב
is good
ṭôwb
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.
