This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job_18:18 He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
Ver. 18. He shall be driven out of light into darkness] Heb. They shall drive him; sc. the devils shall drive him out of the light of life into outer darkness, as they did that rich wretch, Luk_12:20; confer Mat_8:12; Mat_25:30. The Dutch translation readeth it, Men shall drive him. Others understand it to be his troubles and sorrows.
And chased out of the world] As Tarquin was by Collatine, as Phocas was by Heraclius; kicked off the stage of the world, as one phraseth it; or, as Job saith of some wicked, buried before half dead, Job_27:15. "Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him out of his place," Job_27:23.
