Abstract

In the context in which the saying is placed, it appears to mean that a cohort of three comrades is more likely to find some success over against the slings and arrows of life than a set of two companions can achieve, and rather more likely to be successful than a single individual trying to get through life all alone could possibly be. A cord of just one strand is easily breakable; a cord of two strands is slightly less vulnerable; but a threefold cord is a more formidable and durable thing altogether.

传道书的三股绳

在这句话的语境中，它似乎意味着，三个同志组成的团队比两个同伴组成的团队更有可能在对抗生命的弹弓和箭时取得一些成功，也比一个试图独自度过一生的人更有可能取得成功；两股的绳子稍微不那么脆弱；但三重绳索是一种更可怕、更耐用的东西。

It has reflected the different realities of each country and helped to rebuild Jewish consciousness after the Holocaust. The journal offers stimulating debates exploring the responses of Judaism to contemporary political, social, and philosophical challenges; articles reflecting the full range of contemporary Jewish life in Europe, and including documentation of the latest developments in Jewish-Muslim dialogue; new insights derived from science, psychotherapy, and theology as they impact upon Jewish life and thought; literary exchange as a unique exploration of ideas from leading Jewish writers, poets, scholars, and intellectuals with a variety of documentation, poetry, and book reviews section; and book reviews covering a wide range of international publications.
