Job21:25
25. And another dieth in the bitterness of his Soul , and never eateth with Pleasure .
Either 1. Another wicked man. Or 2. Any other man promiscuously considered, either good or bad. So hereby he shews how indifferently and alike, God deals the concerns of this Life to one and another, to good and bad. So he shews that there is a great variety in Gods Dispensations, that he distributes great Prosperity to one, and great afflictions to another no worse than he, according to his wise but secret Counsel.
i. e. With Heart-breaking Pains and Sorrows.
i. e. Hath no pleasure in his Life, no not so much as at Meal-time, when Men usually are most free and pleasant.
