Matthew Poole and continuators on Ecclesiastes 5:11

11 When goods increase, they are increased that eat them : and what good is there to the owners thereof , saving the beholding of them with their eyes .

They require and are more commonly attended with a numerous company of Servants, and Friends, and Retinues to consume them; which is a great torment to a covetous Man, of whom he here speaks.

What benefit hath he above others who feed upon his Provisions, and enjoy the same comforts which he doth without his fears, and cares, and troubles about them?

Either 1. with a reflection upon his Propriety in them. Or, 2. with unlimited freedom. He can go and look upon his Bags or Chests of Silver as long and as oft as he pleaseth, whereas other men are seldom admitted to that prospect, and see onely some few of the fruits or purchases of it.
