2. Why does he say “two are better than one” in Ecclesiastes 4:9-12? What reasons does he give?
3. He also speaks of the perils of isolation. What are they?
4. Have you isolated yourself? Have you isolated yourself from others even though you are frequently in the presence of others? Why is that?
5. Has your involvement with social media and internet surfing hindered your physical presence with others?
6. This chapter touches on other subjects we face in this world: a. How do you deal with oppression? b. How do you deal with envy? Does needing to be “at the top” drive you? c. How do you deal with cultural and political disappointments?
