In this verse the Teacher, traditionally identified as Solomon, continues his account of an experiment in pleasure and wealth. Speaking in the first person, he lists what his royal power allowed him to gather: silver and gold, the treasure of kings and provinces, singers for his court, and the delights of men, which the BSB renders as many concubines.
