Let your garments be always white; and let your head lack no ointment.
All Commentaries on Ecclesiastes 9:8 Go To Ecclesiastes 9
Didymus the Blind
AD 398
“You love righteousness and hate wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” See, even the companions are anointed. But he himself was anointed before them, since he has not been anointed because of them, but they because of him. After all, they are called “Christ’s companions,” not Christ their companion.
