Job 3:19 - John Wesley's Notes

Job 3:19

Compare all

17 There the wicked cease from troubling,
And there the¹ weary are at ^arest.

18 There the prisoners¹ rest together;
^aThey do not hear the voice of the oppressor.

19 The small and great are there,
And the servant is free from his master.

20 “Why^a is light given to him who is in misery,
And life to the ^bbitter of soul,

21 Who ^along for death, but it does not come,
And search for it more than ^bhidden treasures;

Small and great - Persons of all qualities and conditions. Are there - In the same place and state, all those distinctions being forever abolished. A good reason, why those who have power should use it moderately, and those that are in subjection should take it patiently.
