Job 18:14 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

His confidence That is, all the matter of his confidence, his riches, children, &c.; shall be rooted out of his tabernacle That is, out of his habitation. And it Namely, the loss of his confidence; shall bring him to the king of terrors Either, 1st, Into extreme fears and horrors of mind; or, 2d, To death, which even Aristotle called the most terrible of all terribles. And this it will do, either because it will expose him to his enemies, who will kill him; or, because the sense of his disappointments, and losses, and dangers, will break his heart.

Job 18:14

14 His confidence shall be rooted out of his tabernacle, and it shall bring him to the king of terrors.
