However, the Book of Ecclesiastes contains several Aramaic words and two Persian words, so must have been written after the time of the Babylonian Exile, long after the time attributed to Solomon. Also, the Hebrew content is in a more modern form of Hebrew. The author is anonymous but is thought by scholars to have lived after the time of Alexander. Verse 9:5 is evidence that Persian ideas of immortality and resurrection had even then not been universally accepted and was still being debated: 'For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten'.
