John Trapp on Job 7:15

Verſe 15. So that my ſoul chuſeth ſtrangling] i. e. Quamvis duriſſimam ſed praeſentiſſimam mortem, any violent or ignominious death, ſo it were a ſpeedy death. Hippocrates telleth us, that may have been ſo affrighted with dreams and apparitions, that they have hanged themſelves, leaped into deep pits, or otherwiſe made themſelves away. Let thoſe that either have not been ſo terrified, or ſo tempted, or ſo deſerted of God, bleſs him for that mercy.

And death rather then life] Heb. Rather then my bones; that is, any kind of death rather then ſuch a body, which is no nothing elſe but a bag of bones: or then ſuch rotten bones full of ſores and ulcers: he maketh mention of his bones, becauſe his pain had pierced as farre as his very bones; the putrefaction had ſunk down into his marrow.
