What the Fathers say

Ecclesiastes 3:10

Western Saints

Bonaventure

And he shows that there is affliction: I have seen the affliction which God has given to the sons of men, that they may be occupied in it: he gave, that is, he permitted to be given, according to that passage in Romans 1: "God gave them over to a reprobate mind"; to the sons of men, that is, to sinners: above in chapter 2: "But to the sinner God has given affliction and superfluous care." That they may be occupied, namely with various cares; wherefore Ecclesiasticus 11: "My son, let not your occupations be in many things."
