Psalms 49:19 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Now he returns again to the third person. Such sudden and repeated changes are frequent in this book. To the generation of his fathers, i.e. to the grave and hell, where he shall meet with his wicked parents, who by their counsel and example led him into his evil courses; as the godly also are said to be gathered to their fathers, Genesis 15:15 Deuteronomy 32:50 Judges 2:10. Never see, i.e. never enjoy, as seeing is oft taken. Light; neither the light of the living, as it is called, Job 33:30 Psalms 56:13; or of this life, to which they shall never return; nor of the next life to which they shall never be admitted, but they shall be cast into utter darkness, Matthew 8:12.
