SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:10

no tornará más a su casa, ni su lugar le conocerá más.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 7:10

Verse 10. He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more. ] He does not mean that he shall be annihilated but that he shall never more become an inhabitant of the earth. The word lwa , which we properly enough translate grave, here signifies also the state of the dead, hades, and sometimes any deep pit, or even hell itself.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-16 - Plain truths as to the shortness and vanity of man's life, and the certainty of death, do us good, when we think and speak of them with application to ourselves. Dying is done but once, and therefore it ha need be well done. An error here is past retrieve. Other clouds arise but the same cloud never returns: so a new generation of men is raise up, but the former generation vanishes away. Glorified saints shal return no more to the cares and sorrows of their houses; nor condemne sinners to the gaieties and pleasures of their houses. It concerns u to secure a better place when we die. From these reasons Job might have drawn a better conclusion than this, I will complain. When we have but a few breaths to draw, we should spend them in the holy, graciou breathings of faith and prayer; not in the noisome, noxious breathing of sin and corruption. We have much reason to pray, that He who keep Israel, and neither slumbers nor sleeps, may keep us when we slumbe and sleep. Job covets to rest in his grave. Doubtless, this was his infirmity; for though a good man would choose death rather than sin yet he should be content to live as long as God pleases, because lif is our opportunity of glorifying him, and preparing for heaven.
