Job 26:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Hell, as this word is frequently used, as Job 11:8 Isaiah 57:9, &c. And so it seems to be explained by the following word, destruction, i.e. the place of destruction, which interpreters generally understand of hell, or the place of the damned. Others, the grave, the most secret and obscure places and things. Is naked before him, i.e. it is in his presence, and under his providence. So far am I from imagining that God cannot see through a dark cloud, as you traduced me, Job 22:13, that I very well know that even hell itself, that place of utter darkness, is not hid from his sight. Destruction, i.e. the place of destruction, as it is also used, Proverbs 15:11, by a metonymy of the adjunct. Hath no covering, to wit, such as to keep it out of his sight.
