Job 27:18 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

As a moth; which settleth itself in a garment, but is quickly and unexpectedly brushed off, and dispossessed of its dwelling, and crushed to death. That the keeper maketh; which the keeper of a garden or vineyard suddenly rears up in fruit time, and as quickly and easily pulls it down again. See Isaiah 1:8 Lamentations 2:6.

Job 27:18

18 He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth that the keeper maketh.
