Job 3:4 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.

Let not God regard it - rather, more poetically, Seek it out х daarash (H1875)]. 'Let not God stoop from his bright throne to raise it up from its dark hiding-place.' The curse on the day in Job 3:3 is simplified in Job 3:4-5; that on the night, in Job 3:6-10.
