Job14:22

Verſe 22. But his fleſh upon him ſhall have pain.] That is, (ſay ſome) But as long as he is living, his body is afflicted with a thouſand evils; and though his ſoul, by the condition of her creation, be exempt from them, yet ſhe beares a part in them and becomes miſerable with it. A dying man hath ſorrow without, and ſorrow within; the whole man is in miſery, as Job here felt himſelf. Others hold,Aben-Ezra. Mercer Deodate that this Poetical repreſentation hath no other meaning, but that the dead have no manner of communication with the living. Broughtou rendreth it, His fleſh is grieved for it ſelf, and his ſoul will mourn for it ſelf; q.d. he takes no thought or care for his children or neereſt relations.
