JOB PASSES FROM HIS OWN TO THE COMMON MISERY OF MANKIND. (Job 14:1-22)
woman—feeble, and in the East looked down upon (Genesis 2:21). Man being born of one so frail must be frail himself (Matthew 11:11).
few days— (Genesis 47:9; Psalms 90:10). Literally, "short of days." Man is the reverse of full of days and short of trouble.
