Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 3:6

6. As for that Night, let [darkness ] seize upon it, [ let it not be joined unto the days of the year, ] [let it not come into the number of the Months▪ ]

i. e. Constant and extraordinary Darkness, without the least glimmering of Light from the Moon or Stars.

i. e. Reckoned as one or a part of one of them. The night is distinguished from the artificial day, but it is a part of the natural day, which consists of 24 hours. Or rather, let it not rejoice among the days, &c. Joy here, and terrour v. 5. are poetically and figuratively ascribed to the day or night, with respect to men, who either rejoice or are affrighted in it. Let it be a sad, and as it were a funeral day▪

i. e. To be one of those Nights which go to the making up of the Months.
