The word "Ecclesiastes" is derived from a Greek word meaning "gathering" or "congregation," from which come the words "ecclesiastical" (relating to the Church) and the Spanish word ''iglesia'' (church). It is an attempted translation of קֹהֶלֶת linking it to קִהֵל, though this is not a universally accepted tradtion "דִּבְרֵי קֹהֶלֶת בֶּן-דָּוִד, מֶלֶךִּ ירוּשָׁלִָם" - the words/things/sayings of Qohelet (or Kohelet, Qoheleth, or Koheleth) the son of David king of Jerusalem; the book is by tradition ascribed to King Solomon.
