Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 7:9

_ _ (2 Samuel 12:23).

_ _ the grave — the Sheol, or place of departed spirits, not disproving Job’s belief in the resurrection. It merely means, “He shall come up no more” in the present order of things.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 7:7-16.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 7:9

No more — Never until the general resurrection. When we see a cloud which looked great, as if it would eclipse the sun, of a sudden dispersed and disappearing, say, Just such a thing is the life of man, a vapour that appears for a while and then vanisheth away.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Job 7:9

(e) [As] the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall (f) come up no [more].

(e) If you behold me in your anger I will not be able to stand in your presence.

(f) Shall no more enjoy this mortal life.
