Isaiah 38:11 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

I shall not see the Lord, &c.— It is plain, that Hezekiah in this verse speaks singly and simply of the advantages which he should certainly lose by being suddenly cut off from life; without any respect to a future state. By not seeing the Lord in the land of the living, he seems to mean, that he should not see and enjoy the effects of his grace and goodness in the deliverance of his people. The meaning of the last clause, according to Vitringa, is, I shall behold man no more, being joined to the inhabitants of the world of rest.

Isaiah 38:11

11 I said, I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
