To everything, there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.?

Question

Is this from the Bible? Just curious. Please elaborate if you will and find the question within. Thx.

Answer 1

In the Old testament of the Bible, in the book of Ecclesiastes, chapter 3 starting at verse 1. This is one of the Wisdom books of the Bible and this verse in particular expresses the wisdom of experience. There is a time for everything, including a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to hate and a time to love, a time for war and hopefully a time for peace. I think that the philosopher is talking not about what should be but about what is. We can draw from this that everything we think is important will pass away eventually in these eternal cycles of life and be reborn at a later time. "This too shall pass."

A Time To Every Purpose

Answer 8

(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8) “3 For everything there is an appointed time, even a time for every affair under the heavens: 2 a time for birth and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot what was planted; 3 a time to kill and a time to heal; a time to break down and a time to build; 4 a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to wail and a time to skip about; 5 a time to throw stones away and a time to bring stones together; a time to embrace and a time to keep away from embracing; 6 a time to seek and a time to give up as lost; a time to keep and a time to throw away; 7 a time to rip apart and a time to sew together; a time to keep quiet and a time to speak; 8 a time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for peace.”

--Indeed, your expression of purpose, is involved within these verses.

--The Bible speaks of God being of purpose, and not having to plan anything as is seen by what-ever he promises, for instance at the Garden of Eden.

(Genesis 2:3) “3 And God proceeded to bless the seventh day and make it sacred, because on it he has been resting from all his work that God has created for the PURPOSE(my caps) of making.”

--Later He reiterates this idea through Moses and the incident at the burning bush!

(Exodus 3:13-14) “13 Nevertheless, Moses said to the [true] God: “Suppose I am now come to the sons of Israel and I do say to them, ‘The God of YOUR forefathers has sent me to YOU,’ and they do say to me, ‘What is his name?’ What shall I say to them?” 14 At this God said to Moses: “I SHALL PROVE TO BE WHAT I SHALL PROVE TO BE.” And he added: “This is what you are to say to the sons of Israel, ‘I SHALL PROVE TO BE has sent me to YOU.’””

--Thus in the following text, the surety of God's purpose is illustrated:

(Isaiah 55:10-11) “10 For just as the pouring rain descends, and the snow, from the heavens and does not return to that place, unless it actually saturates the earth and makes it produce and sprout, and seed is actually given to the sower and bread to the eater, 11 so my word that goes forth from my mouth will prove to be. It will not return to me without results, but it will certainly do that in which I have delighted, and it will have certain success in that for which I have sent it.”
