JOB EXCUSES HIS DESIRE FOR DEATH. (Job 7:1-21)
appointed time—better, "a warfare," hard conflict with evil (so in Isaiah 40:2; Daniel 10:1). Translate it "appointed time" (Job 14:14). Job reverts to the sad picture of man, however great, which he had drawn (Job 3:14), and details in this chapter the miseries which his friends will see, if, according to his request (Job 6:28), they will look on him. Even the Christian soldier, "warring a good warfare," rejoices when it is completed (I Timothy 1:18; II Timothy 2:3; II Timothy 4:7-8).
