Contextual Overview

17 How oft shall the candell of the wicked be put out, and their destruction come vpon them? O what sorowe shall God geue them for their part in his wrath? 18 Yea, they shalbe euen as hay before the winde, and as chaffe that the storme carieth away. 19 God wyll lay vp the sorowe of the father for his children: & when he rewardeth him, he shall know it. 20 Their owne miserie shal they see with their eyes, and drinke of the fearefull wrath of the almightie. 21 For what careth he for his house after his death, when the number of his monethes is cut short? 22 Seeing God hath the highest power of all, who can teache him any knowledge? 23 One dyeth in his full strength, being in all ease and prosperitie, 24 His breastes are full of milke, and his bones runne full of marowe. 25 Another dyeth in the bitternes of his soule, and neuer eateth with pleasure. 26 They shall sleepe both alyke in the earth, and the wormes shall couer them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul,.... Either another wicked man; for there is a difference among wicked men; some are outwardly happy in life, and in the circumstances of their death, as before described; and others are very unhappy in both; their life is a scene of afflictions which embitter life, and make death eligible; and in the midst of which they die, as well as oftentimes in bitter pains, and terrible agonies of body, as well as in great distress and horror of mind, and black despair, as Judas and others:

and never eateth with pleasure, or "of any good", or "any good thing" y; either he has it not to eat, or what he has is not good, but like husks which swine eat, of which the prodigal would fain have filled his belly, when in extreme poverty, such as those words may describe; or else having what is good, has not an heart to eat of it; and so they describe a miser, living and dying such; see Ecclesiastes 6:2; or rather the case of a man, who, through distempers and diseases of body, has lost his appetite, and cannot with any pleasure taste of the richest dainties; see Job 33:20. Some z interpret this verse and

Job 21:23 as what should be the case according to the sentiments of Job's friends, who objected, that God punished the iniquities of wicked men, not in their own persons, but in their children; according to which, a wicked man then should die in the perfection of happiness, without weakness or want, in all quietness, ease, peace, and prosperity; and not in poverty and distress: but as Job 21:23 respect a wicked man, and his case and circumstances at death, agreeably to the whole context; so this relates to those of a good man, whom the Lord often deals bitterly with in life, as he did with Naomi, and was now the case of Job; see Ruth 1:20; and who die in very poor and distressed circumstances; so that nothing is to be concluded from such appearances, with respect to the characters of men, as good or bad, and especially since both are brought into a like condition by death, as follows.
