Solomon's words from a famous passage of Ecclesiastes have been translated, "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity." In this book Peter Leithart says those words are better translated "Vapour of vapours, all is vapour," emphasising that human life is fleeting. He uses this theme, as well as the entire book of Ecclesiastes, to indicate how Solomon resonated with themes of today's postmodernism.
