Context — From Dust to Dust
14I know that everything God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God does it so that they should fear Him.
15What exists has already been, and what will be has already been, for God will call to account what has passed.
16Furthermore, I saw under the sun that in the place of judgment there is wickedness, and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness.
17I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked, since there is a time for every activity and every deed.” 18I said to myself, “As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts.”Cross References

They proclaimed a fast and gave Naboth a seat of honor among the people. And the two scoundrels came in and sat opposite Naboth, and these men testified against him before the people, saying, “Naboth has cursed both God and the king!” So they took him outside the city and stoned him to death. Then they sent word to Jezebel: “Naboth has been stoned to death.” When Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned to death, she said to Ahab, “Get up and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, who refused to give it to you for silver. For Naboth is no longer alive, but dead.” And when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he got up and went down to take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

Ecclesiastes 3:16 Summary
[This verse is saying that even in places where we expect to find fairness and justice, we often find evil and corruption instead, which can be discouraging and frustrating. However, as believers, we can trust that God is still in control and will ultimately judge all people for their actions, as stated in Ecclesiastes 3:17. We can also take comfort in the fact that God is not surprised by the wickedness in the world, and that He has a plan to redeem and restore all things, as described in Revelation 21:5. By trusting in God's sovereignty and goodness, we can have hope and peace even in the midst of wickedness, as promised in Isaiah 26:3.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean that there is wickedness in the place of judgment?
This means that even in places where justice should be upheld, such as courts, there is often corruption and evil instead, as seen in Ecclesiastes 3:16, and this is a result of the fallen nature of humanity, as described in Romans 3:23.
How can there be wickedness in the place of righteousness?
This phrase suggests that even in places or situations where righteousness should be the standard, such as in churches or among religious leaders, wickedness can still be found, as seen in Matthew 23:27-28, where Jesus condemns the hypocrisy of the Pharisees.
Is the author of Ecclesiastes saying that God is responsible for the wickedness?
No, the author is not saying that God is responsible for the wickedness, but rather that He allows it to exist for a time, as seen in Ecclesiastes 3:16, and that He will ultimately judge all people for their actions, as stated in Ecclesiastes 3:17 and Romans 2:16.
What is the purpose of God allowing wickedness to exist?
The purpose of God allowing wickedness to exist is not fully understood, but it may be to test humanity's character, as seen in Ecclesiastes 3:18, and to ultimately bring about a greater good, as described in Romans 8:28, where it is written that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him.
Reflection Questions
- How do you see wickedness in the place of judgment in your own life or community, and what can you do to stand against it?
- In what ways can you be a beacon of righteousness in a world filled with wickedness, as described in Matthew 5:14-16?
- How does the existence of wickedness in the world affect your faith in God's goodness and sovereignty, and what scriptures can you turn to for comfort and guidance?
- What are some ways that you can personally work to uphold righteousness and justice in your own sphere of influence, as encouraged in Micah 6:8?
Gill's Exposition on Ecclesiastes 3:16
And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment,.... Courts of judicature, where judges sit, and, causes are brought before them, and are heard and tried; such as were the Jewish sanhedrim, of
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ecclesiastes 3:16
And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there. The place of judgment ... wickedness was there. Here a difficulty is suggested.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3:16
This is mentioned, either, 1. As another vanity, to wit, the vanity of honour and power, which is so oft an instrument of injustice and oppression. Or rather, 2. As another argument of the vanity of worldly things, or a hinderance of that comfort which men expect in this life, because they are oppressed by their rulers. I saw; I perceived it by information from others, and by my own observation. The place of judgment; in the thrones of princes and tribunals of magistrates, where judgment should be duly executed. Wickedness was there; judgment was perverted, the guilty acquitted, and the innocent condemned. The place of righteousness; in which righteousness should be found and should dwell, if it were banished from all other places.
Trapp's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3:16
Ecclesiastes 3:16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, [that] wickedness [was] there; and the place of righteousness, [that] iniquity [was] there.Ver. 16. The place of judgment, that wickedness was there,] i.e., That wrong reigned in the places of judicature, that justice was shamefully perverted, and public authority abused to public injury. Cato saw as much in the Roman States, and complained that private robbers were laid in cold irons, when public thieves went in gold chains, and were clothed in purple. Another, not without cause, complains that, even among us Christians, some follow the administration of justice as a trade only, with an unquenchable and unconscionable desire of gain, which justifies the common resemblance of the courts of justice to the bush, whereto while the sheep flees for defence in ill weather, he is sure to lose part of his fleece. Such wickedness saw the wise man in the place of judgment, where he least looked for it. God himself "looked for judgment, but behold a scab." So the Hebrew hath it. A. Gell., lib. xi. cap. 16.
Ellicott's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3:16
(16) This verse introduces the consideration of the difficulty arising from the imperfection of moral retribution in this life. Other places where the iniquity of judges is mentioned are Ecclesiastes 4:1; Ecclesiastes 5:8; Ecclesiastes 6:7; Ecclesiastes 8:9-10.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3:16
Verse 16. The place of judgment, that wickedness was there] The abuse of power, and the perversion of judgment, have been justly complained of in every age of the world. The following paraphrase is good: - "But what enjoyment can our labours yield, When e'en the remedy prescribed by heaven To cure disorders proves our deadliest bane? When God's vicegerents, destined to protect The weak from insolence of power, to guard Their lives and fortunes, impious robbers turn? And, or by force or fraud, deprive of both?---- To what asylum shall the injured fly From her tribunal, where perverted law Acquits the guilty, the innocent condemns?" C.
Cambridge Bible on Ecclesiastes 3:16
16. I saw under the sun the place of judgment] The Hebrew gives slightly different forms of the same noun, so as to gain the emphasis, without the monotony, of iteration, where the A.V. has the needless variation of “wickedness” and “iniquity.” Either word will do, but it should be the same in both clauses. We enter on another phase of the seeker’s thoughts. The moral disorder of the world, its oppressive rulers, its unjust judges, its religious hypocrisies, oppress him even more than the failure of his own schemes of happiness. In part the feeling implies a step out of selfishness, sympathy with the sufferers, the perception of what ought to be, as contrasted with what is, and therefore an upward step in the seeker’s progress. In the “place of judgment” we may see the tribunal where justice is administered: in that of “righteousness” the councils, secular, or, it may be, ecclesiastical, in which men ought to have been witnesses for the divine law of Righteousness and were self-seeking and ambitious.
Barnes' Notes on Ecclesiastes 3:16
That great anomaly in the moral government of this world, the seemingly unequal distribution of rewards and punishments, will be rectified by God, who has future times and events under His control Ecclesiastes 3:16-17.
Whedon's Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3:16
16. The conclusion which has already been reached by a consideration of the inability of man to change the inevitable course of even the smallest events of human life, is confirmed by another observation.
