In what condition is man while in the grave?

Answer

"Whatsoever thy hand finds to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge,
nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goes!' Eccl. 9: 10.
NOTE - That is, man, when dead, has no use of the powers of mind or body. He cannot, therefore,
while in the grave, praise God, or even think of Him (Ps. 6: 5)
