Job’s disease is a malignant ulcer of some kind that causes the rotting of the flesh. One may recall that both Antiochus Epiphanes (2 Macc 9:9) and Herod Agrippa ( Acts 12:23 ) were devoured by such worms in their diseases.","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A5/3"}

He introduces the subject with “my days,” a metonymy for his whole life and everything done on those days. He does not mean individual days – they drag on endlessly.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A6/1"}

In Judg 16:14 it is a loom (see BDB 71 s.v. אֶרֶג ), but here it must be the shuttle. Hezekiah uses the imagery of the weaver, the loom, and the shuttle for the brevity of life (see Isa 38:12 ). The LXX used, “My life is lighter than a word.”","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A6/3"}

The NIV supplies the word “God” for clarification. It was God who breathed breath into man’s nostrils ( Gen 2:7 ), and so God is called to remember that man is but a breath.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A7/1"}

God now sees him with a hostile eye; when he looks for him, or looks upon him in friendliness, it will be too late.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A8/1"}

Job is simply stating that when people die they are gone – they do not return to this present life on earth. Most commentators and theologians believe that theological knowledge was very limited at such an early stage, so they would not think it possible for Job to have bodily resurrection in view. (See notes on ch. 14 and 19:25-27 .)","source_note_position":4,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A9/4"}

Peake notes that in this section Job comes very close to doing what Satan said he would do. If he does not curse God to his face, he certainly does cast off restraints to his lament. But here Job excuses himself in advance of the lament.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A11/2"}

Job is at first amazed that God would visit him; but even more is he amazed that God is testing him every moment. The employment of a chiasm with the two temporal adverbial phrases as the central elements emphasizes the regularity.","source_note_position":3,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Job%207%3A18/3"}
