Job 19:10 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Every side — In all respects, my person, and family, and estate. Gone — I am a lost and dead man. Hope — All my hopes of the present life, but not of the life to come. Tree — Which being once plucked up by the roots, never grows again. Hope in this life is a perishing thing. But the hope of good men, when it is cut off from this world, is but removed like a tree, transplanted from this nursery to the garden of God.

Job 19:10

10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
