Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 19:10

_ _ destroyed ... on every side — “Shaken all round, so that I fall in the dust”; image from a tree uprooted by violent shaking from every side [Umbreit]. The last clause accords with this (Jeremiah 1:10)

_ _ mine hope — as to this life (in opposition to Zophar, Job 11:18); not as to the world to come (Job 19:25; Job 14:15).

_ _ removed — uprooted.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 19:8-22.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 19:10

Every side — In all respects, my person, and family, and estate. Gone — I am a lost and dead man. Hope — All my hopes of the present life, but not of the life to come. Tree — Which being once plucked up by the roots, never grows again. Hope in this life is a perishing thing. But the hope of good men, when it is cut off from this world, is but removed like a tree, transplanted from this nursery to the garden of God.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Job 19:10

He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like (f) a tree.

(f) Which is plucked up, and has no more hope to grow.
