Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Whose foundation was overflown with a flood - The unrighteous in the days of Noah, who appear to have had an abundance of all temporal good, (Job 22:18), and who surpassed the deeds of all the former wicked, said in effect to God, Depart from us. And when Noah preached unto them the terrors of the Lord, and the necessity of repentance, they rejected his preaching with, What can the Almighty do for us? Let him do his worst; we care not for him, Job 22:17. For lamo , to Them, the Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic have evidently read lanu , to Us. This reading quotes their own saying; the former reading narrates it in the third person. The meaning, however, is the same.
