Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 21:24

_ _ breasts — rather, “skins,” or “vessels” for fluids [Lee]. But [Umbreit] “stations or resting-places of his herds near water”; in opposition to Zophar (Job 20:17); the first clause refers to his abundant substance, the second to his vigorous health.

_ _ moistened — comparing man’s body to a well-watered field (Proverbs 3:8; Isaiah 58:11).

Matthew Henry's Commentary
