John Trapp on Job 2:13

Verſe 13. So they ſat down with him upon the ground] Though his ſent and loathſomeneſs were intolerable, yet they bare him company: this was love and ſympathy, thus to ſit by him on the ground, then when every one loathed him, and would not lend him a hand to help to ſcrape him.

Seven dayes and ſeven nights] Not all this time, but the moſt part of it, without giving almoſt any regard to their ordinary reſt, and neceſſary ſuſtenance. Origen ſaith, they were ſuſtained and preſerved all that while without ſleep and meat, by a miracle: Others holding it a thing impoſſible, have therefore judged this whole book to be a parable only.

And none ſpake a word unto him] So great was their grief; Curae leves l[illegible: 1 letter] quuntur, ingentes ſtupent. Calvin thinks they were too blame, to be ſo long ſilent. Belike, they were loth to be troubleſome, and waited a fit opportunity; looking that he ſhould ſpeak firſt, and harbouring hard conceits of him.

For they ſaw that his grief was very great] His paine was extreme, and therefore no time to talk with him. Beſides, though they came prepared, yet altering their opinions of him, they doubted how, and what to ſpeak, till at length they became Satans advocates.
