Description

Why is Kohelet canonized, if it contains internal contradictions as well as contradictions of the general outlook of Tanach? Viewing the book as a declaration that the world is not entirely about and for human beings, much less comprehensible to human beings, and we are meant to deal with that by living the life Hashem wants us to live.
