- Job 30:30
My skin grows black and peels, and my bones burn with fever.
Commentary on Job 30:302 voices
My skin is black upon me,.... Either through deep melancholy, as may be observed in persons of such a disposition, through grief and trouble; or rather through the force of his disease, the burning ulcers and black scabs with which he was covered, as the Jews were through famine, in their captivity, Lam 4:8; and my bones are burnt with heat; with the heat of a burning fever; which not only made his inwards boil, but reached to his bones, and dried up the marrow of them.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
My skin is black - By continual exposure to the open air, and parching influence of the sun. My bones are burned with heat - A strong expression, to point out the raging fever that was continually preying upon his vitals.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- Joel 2:6
Nations writhe in horror before them; every face turns pale.
Commentary on Joel 2:61 voice
All faces shall gather blackness - Universal mourning shall take place, because they know that such a plague is irresistible.
