Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 8:18

_ _ If He (God) tear him away (properly, “to tear away rapidly and violently”) from his place, “then it [the place personified] shall deny him” (Psalms 103:16). The very soil is ashamed of the weeds lying withered on its surface, as though it never had been connected with them. So, when the godless falls from prosperity, his nearest friends disown him.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 8:8-19.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

He — God, who is the saviour of good men, and the destroyer of the wicked. It — The place; to which denying him, and seeing him, are here ascribed figuratively. Not seen — He shall be so utterly extirpated and destroyed, that there shall be no memorial of him left.
