Job 7:10

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

He shall return no more to his house. This is best taken literally. Men do not, after death, return to their houses and resume their old occupations. From the life in this world they disappear for ever.

Neither shall his place know him any mere (comp. Psalms 103:16).
