[Ecc 6:1-2 KJV] 1 There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it [is] common among men:
2 A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this [is] vanity, and it [is] an evil disease.
Hmmm...seems somewhat like what socialist and communist proponents want to do today and Solomon calls it an evil disease. The ESV version calls it a grievous evil.
When God blesses someone, an opportunity is given to bless others. When such blessings are ripped away or stolen from someone they are no longer blessings that are joyously given but regretful things that make one sad and resentful.
