(16) After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations. (17) So Job died, being old and full of days.
And thus end the lives of all: like Moses, and all the faithful gone before, having served in his day and generation, he fell asleep, and was gathered to his fathers, and saw corruption. Precious JESUS! here, as in every other point of view of real importance, we are led to contemplate thee, whose years fail not, but who abidest a priest forever, and art the same yesterday, today, and forever.
