Curt's Recent Discoveries and Deep Thoughts

• I wonder... could Ecclesiastes have been written by Manasseh? The book doesn't claim to be written by Solomon -- only by a son of David who was king over Israel in Jerusalem (1:12). That, plus 1:16, sound like it is Solomon, but it seems very likely to be more flexible than that. Many have argued for a late date of writing, due to linguistic characteristics. Well... and I need to look into this much more... but perhaps it was written by Manasseh. Oh, sure, that wouldn't satisfy some people's complaints. But perhaps it is accurate, nontheless. Just a thought. (And of course, if not Manasseh, then there are yet other kings, sons of David, who could have written it.)
