SNAP SHOT
In the Hebrew tradition of the time Ecclesiastes was written, men embraced each other by wrapping their arms around each other as a greeting and sign of friendship.
The word embrace is also used in the context of embracing the scripture, the written word as a symbol or act pleasing to God and recognizable by other worthy men.
A Time to Refrain from Embrace would be avoiding some one out of anger or jealousy, or presenting false witness as friendship, not pleasing to God and easily recognizable by worthy men.
