John Trapp on Job 17:13

Verſe 13. If I wait, the grave is mine houſe.] In that congregation houſe of all living, (as it is called chap. 30.23) both I and my hopes muſt be ſuddenly lodged. Some render it thus, If I build, the grave is my houſe. Solomon calleth it, T[illegible: 2 letters] houſe of eternity, Eccleſ. 12.5. And the Egyptians accordingly call graves, everlaſting houſes, as [illegible: 1 word] ſaith Lib. 1.

I have made my bed in darkneſs] The grave was Jobs houſe, and therein he had made his bed to reſt from his labours. There men follow their works no more, becauſe followed by their works, Rev. 14.14.
