Job 3:17 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

There, i.e. in the grave, which though not expressed, yet is clearly implied in the foregoing verses. The wicked cease from troubling; the great oppressors and troublers of the world cease from all those vexations, rapines, and murders which here they procured. There the weary be at rest; those who were here molested and tired out with their tyrannies, now quietly sleep with them, or by them.
