This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job_13:28 And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is moth eaten.
Ver. 28. And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth] Heb. Waxeth old. He, that is, this poor man, this silly wretch, as David speaketh of himself, Psa_34:6. Or this body of mine, as Job_19:26; Job pointing to it, as it is like he did there; and Paul, 1Co_15:53-54. "As a rotten thing" (Heb. as rottenness), "consumeth." When a thing once rotteth, as an apple, flesh, &c., it soon perisheth. Such is man, under pressing afflictions especially.
And as a garment that is moth eaten] The beauty whereof is defaced, and the usefulness departed.
