Answer:

Remembering God, life under the sun, sovereignty of God, wisdom and enjoyment of life.

Explanation:

The <u>Book of Ecclesiastes is the 21st book in the Old Testament of the Holy Book</u>. It contains 12 chapters, all of which have the recurring themes of life's meaninglessness and the sovereignty of God.

From the very first chapter of the book, the author, King Solomon delves into how <u>meaningless human life is without God</u>. He stresses the life of man under the sun, where all things seem meaningless unless living with God. He also focuses on the need to remember God and his great nature, his ever providing nature. He states in Chapter 2: 24-25, <em>"A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?"</em> In chapter 6:2, he says <em>"God gives some people wealth, possessions and honor, so that they lack nothing their hearts desire, but God does not grant them the ability to enjoy them, and strangers enjoy them instead. This is meaningless, a grievous evil"</em>. And in chapter 8:17, he states <em>"I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun"</em>.

Explanation:

1. To annihilate is to destroy something, kill completely.  To Annihilate is to get rid of something completely. For example: genocide has the purpose to annihilate (get rid of) human beings who are different, belong to a certain religion or sect.  It came from the Late Latin word: "annihilatus" meaning "reduced to nothing", While obliterate means to in Latin to: "struck out", meaning "Trying something with multiple attempt but fail". Anihialate is the action of destroying completely, while obliterate is the action to attempt in annihilation, but, failing multiple times. [Have to try till you get rid of]

Even so, people who are not religious can also have these morals and look bad upon children who are a "bas-ta-rd", a child that was produced out of wed-lock. While decadent is someone who shows a decline in morals, the person is aware of the morals but they themselves "choose" to decline the moral and cultural norms and rules. For example: The U.S prohibits marriage of two or more people. Those who do it disobey the law.

5. Rending is to tear something into two or more pieces. Rending is not done in force, you can tear a piece of paper calmly. To tear is to rip something with force, for example: "He tore with his teeth the flesh upon her skin into two pieces".

6. Tumultuous is to make a loud and confusing noise while clamorous is a racket, its a noise made to be heard or to cause confusion. In Latin it means to "cry out".
