What does the Bible say about the day of death being better than the day of birth?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that for believers, the day of death is better than the day of birth because it signifies freedom from all sorrow and pain.

In Ecclesiastes 7:1, it states, 'A good name is better than precious ointment, and the day of death than the day of one's birth.' This profound statement applies specifically to those who are in Christ, meaning that only believers can face death with hope and joy. For the believer, death marks the end of suffering and a transition into eternal peace and joy in the presence of God, as highlighted in Revelation 7:9-17, where it describes believers before the throne of God, free from all troubles.
