As well their love, as their hatred and their envy, is long ago perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
Kohelet Rabbah
“Even their love, even their hatred and even their envy, have already perished; they will never again have a portion in anything that is done under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 9:6).
“Even their love” – that they had for their idolatry more than for the Holy One blessed be He; “even their hatred” – that they had for the Holy One blessed be He [and they expressed] through their actions; “even their envy [kinatan]” – that they infuriated Him [kinuhu] with their idol worship, as it is stated: “They would infuriate Him with strange gods” (Deuteronomy 32:16). They no longer have a portion in the world.16The World to Come. But Israel has a portion and an excellent reward, as it is stated: “Go eat your bread joyfully” (Ecclesiastes 9:7).
