19 Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion , and to rejoice in his labour, this is the gift of God.
Heb. hath given him the dominion; who is the Lord and Master of his Estate, not a Slave to it. Of this and the former Verse see the Notes on Eccles 2. 24. & 3. 12, 13.
To his own use, to use what God hath given him.
