Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
All Commentaries on Ecclesiastes 12:7 Go To Ecclesiastes 12
Cyprian of Carthage
AD 258
We ask that the will of God may be done both in heaven and in earth, each of which things pertains to the fulfillment of our safety and salvation. For since we possess the body from the earth and the spirit from heaven, we ourselves are earth and heaven; and in both—that is, both in body and spirit—we pray that God’s will may be done. The Lord’s Prayer
