Graveyard of St. Peter's in Winter Heinrich Burkel (1802-1869) Romanticism Style Residenzgalerie, Salzburg, Austria Image Source: Web Gallery of Art [ Illustration: The painting above relates to Job's deeply focused anticipation of the grave. ] SPECIAL NOTE: [ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: In Job 17, Job concludes his answer to Eliphaz. Job said that he had declined so severely that he was about to go among, and into, the graves [i.e., the graveyard]. Meanwhile, his friends mocked him and provoked him (1-2). So he asked that someone would post a surety bond in court for him [so that he might gain a proper trial], because his friends were not trying him properly -- God had withheld understanding from them; and they were respecters of persons who would bring trouble even upon their own households (3-5). But, God, said Job, had made him a byword and someone before whom people spit [as the ESV translates it]. His cause was urgent because of his great physical decline -- his eye grew dim and his limbs were as thin as a shadow. He said that upright men would be astonished at his plight and would act against hypocrites [like his friends]. He said that a righteous man [like himself] would be stronger and stronger by maintaining his way. As for his friends, Job could not find a wise man among them. Meanwhile, death was near for Job. His days were past, his purposes (even the very thoughts of his heart) were broken off; darkness was approaching; the grave would be his house; corruption was his father; the worm was his mother and his sister. No hope was left. He was about to be imprisoned in the pit with its other prisoners (6-16). [ Sermons: Hywel Jones.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.
