Ecclesiastes and Omar Khayyam: A Note for the Spiritual Temper of Our Time is a book written by John Franklin Genung. The book explores the similarities between two texts: the biblical book of Ecclesiastes and the Persian poet Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat. Both texts are known for their philosophical and existential themes, and Genung argues that they offer valuable insights into the spiritual temper of our time. The book delves into the themes of mortality, the meaning of life, and the nature of God and the universe, as explored by both Ecclesiastes and Omar Khayyam. Genung also explores the historical and cultural contexts of both texts, providing a nuanced understanding of their significance. Overall, Ecclesiastes and Omar Khayyam is a thought-provoking exploration of two timeless texts and their relevance to contemporary spiritual and philosophical discourse.1901. Using Ecclesiastes and Omar Khayyam as source texts, Genung writes that out of a twilight era of revelation the words come, but from a spirit so sound, so ready for the sunrise, that the two thousand years of diffused day that have intervened since only serve to make their essential truth more evident.
