The ninth of the Ten Commandments reminds us that we will be accountable for all that we say as well as what we do. Watch as Pastor MacLaren leads a meditation on the Larger Catechism of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church during the Sunday Worship Service of May 27, 2012, at First Presbyterian Church of Perkasie, PA (USA; www.firstchurchopc.org).

"Vanity of vanities, everything is vanity" — but what does that actually mean? In this video, we dig into the Hebrew word behind "vanity" in Ecclesiastes and why it's better translated as vapor, breath, or wind. The author isn't saying life is worthless — he's saying that wealth, wisdom, joy, and possessions can never deliver on the promise we think they hold. Using the image of a child chasing bubbles, we unpack why Ecclesiastes says chasing these things is like chasing the wind, and what that means for how we actually find meaning.
