Job 21:26 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.

Ver. 26. They shall lie down alike in the dust, and worms, &c.] Death and afflictions are common to them both, as Ecc 9:2-3 How then do ye pronounce me wicked, because afflicted, and free among the dead, free of that company? &c.

And the worms shall cover them] Who haply were once covered with costliest clothing. The best are but worm's meat; why then should we pamper and trick up these carcases?

Job 21:26
