Job 5:26 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season. Thou shalt come to thy grave - Thou shalt not die before thy time; thou shalt depart from life like a full-fed guest; happy in what thou hast known, and in what thou hast enjoyed.

Like as a shock of corn - Thou shalt completely run through the round of the spring, summer, autumn, and winter of life; and thou shalt be buried like a wholesome seed in the earth; from which thou shalt again rise up into an eternal spring!

Job 5:26

26 Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh inj in his season.
