Job 3:3
_ _ the night in which — rather “the night which said.” The words in italics are not in the Hebrew. Night is personified and poetically made to speak. So in Job 3:7, and in Psalms 19:2. The birth of a male in the East is a matter of joy; often not so of a female. |
Job 3:3
Let the day — Let the remembrance of that day be utterly lost. |
Job 3:3
Let the day (c) perish wherein I was born, and the night [in which] it was said, There is a man child conceived.
(c) Men should not be weary of their life and curse it, because of the infinities that it is subject to, but because they are given to sin and rebellion against God. |
- Let the day:
- That is, as we say, "Let it be blotted out of the calendar."
Job 10:18-19 Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me! ... I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
Jeremiah 15:10 Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; [yet] every one of them doth curse me.
Jeremiah 20:14-15 Cursed [be] the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed. ... Cursed [be] the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.
