Gill's Notes on the Bible
For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so [is] the laughter of the fool,.... As thorns are weak, useless, and unprofitable; yea, hurtful and pernicious, and only fit for burning; so are foolish and wicked men, 2 Samuel 23:6; and as the noise and sound of the one under a pot is very short, they make a blaze for a while, and is soon over; so though the laughter of a fool is loud and noisy, it makes no melody, no more than the noise of thorns; and is but for a moment, and will be soon changed for weeping and howling, which will last for ever; see Job 20:5;
this also [is] vanity; the carnal mirth of wicked men.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
As the crackling of thorns - Noisy while it lasts, and quickly extinguished. See Psalms 58:9 note.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ecclesiastes 7:6. For as the crackling of thorns — They make a great noise, a great blaze; and are extinguished in a few moments. Such indeed, comparatively, are the joys of life; they are noisy, flashy, and transitory.
