Job 30:22
_ _ liftest ... to wind — as a “leaf” or “stubble” (Job 13:25). The moving pillars of sand, raised by the wind to the clouds, as described by travelers, would happily depict Job’s agitated spirit, if it be to them that he alludes.
_ _ dissolvest ... substance — The marginal Hebrew reading (Keri), “my wealth,” or else “wisdom,” that is, sense and spirit, or “my hope of deliverance.” But the text (Chetib) is better: Thou dissolvest me (with fear, Exodus 15:15) in the crash (of the whirlwind; see on Job 30:14) [Maurer]. Umbreit translates as a verb, “Thou terrifiest me.” |
Job 30:22
Thou — Thou exposest me, to all sorts of storms and calamities; so that I am like chaff or stubble lifted up to the wind, and violently tossed hither and thither in the air. Substance — By which, my body is almost consumed, and my heart is melted within me. |
Job 30:22
Thou liftest me up to the (p) wind; thou causest me to ride [upon it], and dissolvest my substance.
(p) He compares his afflictions to a tempest or whirlwind. |

Ezekiel 5:2 Thou shalt burn with fire a third part in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled: and thou shalt take a third part, [and] smite about it with a knife: and a third part thou shalt scatter in the wind; and I will draw out a sword after them.
