the wonder of all eternity



There is a wonderful harmony
in the divine Providence and all its disposals,
so that the events of it, when they come to be considered in their relations and tendencies, together with the seasons of them,
will appear very beautiful,

to the glory of God and the comfort of those that trust in him.
Though we see not the complete beauty of Providence,
yet we shall see it, and a glorious sight it will be,
when the mystery of God shall be finished.
Then every thing shall appear to have been done in the most proper time
and it will be the wonder of eternity.

Henry, Matthew. Commentary on Ecclesiastes 3.
