Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 24:22

22. He draweth also the mighty , with his power : he riseth up , and no man is sure of life .

Either into his Ne[illegible: 1+ letters], as Psalm 10. 9. or to his Party, to assist and serve him in his Enterprizes

Who are mighty in place, or wealth, or power: He practiseth upon these, as well as upon the poor.

Which being greater than theirs, the soon forceth them to comply with his desires and demands.

To wit, against any man, as this phrase is used, Psalm 18. 38. & 44. 5. When he sets himself against a man and resolves to destroy him.

i. e. None of them whom he so opposeth can be secure or confident of holding his life, but all such give up themselves for lost men, as knowing they cannot resist his greater might: Compare Deut. 28. 26.

Marginal references: Or, he trusteth not his own life.
