Der Mensch ist dem Vieh gleich, das vertilgt wird Holger Delkurt

Ps 49 does not seek, as is often to be read, an answer to the problem of how the suffering of the righteous can be reconciled with the well-being of the wicked under the aspect of God's righteousness, but reflects the question: Can man influence it through possession what awaits him after his death? The Psalm's radical insight into human mortality can only be found in the Book of Kohelet, to which further close relationships can be shown.
