"For there are many words which increase futility. What then is the advantage to. man?"many words which increase futility" -There are many human arguments which in the end are only vanity. "Even though man is very glib and capable of varying and lengthy speeches, such exercises will only manifest his vanity" (Kidwell p. 149). Many human arguments simply prove that God is right when He says, "Nor is it in man who walks to direct his steps" (Jeremiah 10:23). And nothing is improved by the multiplication of arguments or lengthening the arguments.. multiplication of words only multiplies the argument as being vain. "more exhaustive attempts at explaining the human situation (apart from God) only confound the facts and are of no benefit to humanity"
