Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 19:15

15. They that dwell in mine house , and my maids h count me for a stranger : I am an alien in their sight .

Who by reason of their Sex, commonly have and should have more tender and compassionate hearts than men. And therefore this is God's doing, who hath hardned their hearts against me.

Regard my Commands and Concerns no more than a strangers.

The same thing repeated through vehemency of passion, because this lay very heavy upon him.

Heb. The sojourners of my house; i. e. such as had formerly sojourned with me, whether strangers, widows, and fatherless, whom by the Law of Charity and Hospitality he entertained: Or hired Servants, who had for a good while their habitation and subsistence in his Family.
