Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 22:16

_ _ cut down — rather, “fettered,” as in Job 16:8; that is, arrested by death.

_ _ out of time — prematurely, suddenly (Job 15:32; Ecclesiastes 7:17); literally, “whose foundation was poured out (so as to become) a stream or flood.” The solid earth passed from beneath their feet into a flood (Genesis 7:11).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 22:15-20.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 22:16

Out of — Before their time. A flood — Who, together with their foundation, the earth and all their supports and enjoyments in it, were destroyed by the general deluge.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Job 22:16

Which were (l) cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:

(l) He proves God's providence by the punishment of the wicked, whom he takes away before they can bring their wicked purposes to pass.
