Contextual Overview

¹⁹ He chasteneth hym with sickenesse vpon his bedde, he layeth sore punishement vpon his bones: ²⁰ So that his lyfe may away with no bread, and his soule abhorreth to eate any dayntie meate: ²¹ In so much that his body is cleane consumed away, and his bones appeare which before were not seene. ²² His soule draweth vnto the graue, and his lyfe to death. ²³ Now yf there be a messenger, one among a thousande, sent for to speake vnto man, and to shew him the right way: ²⁴ Then the Lord is mercifull vnto him, and sayth, He shalbe deliuered, that he fall not downe to the graue: for I am sufficiently reconciled. ²⁵ Then shal his fleshe be as freshe as a childes, and shal returne as in the dayes of his youth. ²⁶ He shall pray vnto God, and he will be fauorable vnto him, and he shall see his face with ioy, for he will render vnto man his righteousnesse. ²⁷ A respect hath he vnto men, let man then say, I haue offended, I did vnrighteously, & it hath done me no good: ²⁸ Yea he hath deliuered my soule from destruction, and my lyfe shall see the light.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So that his life abhorreth bread,.... Through the force of pain he loses his appetite for food, and even a nausea of it takes place; he loathes it as the most abominable and filthy thing that can be thought of; even bread, so necessary to the support of human life, so strengthening to the heart of man, and what he every day stands in need of, and should pray for, and in health is never weary of; it may be put for all common and useful food:

and his soul dainty meat; the most rich and delicious; such as the tables of the great and rich are furnished with: "food of desire" p; or desirable food, as it may be rendered; see Daniel 10:3; such as in the time of health the appetite craves and desires, and is fed on with delight and pleasure, but now had in the utmost aversion. Pains and diseases of body often produce such a nausea in men, Psalms 107:17, and was Job's case, Job 3:24.

p מאכל תאוה "cibum desiderii", Vatablus, Drusius, Michaelis; "cibum appetentiae", Mercerus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

So that his life abhorreth bread - It is a common effect of sickness to take away the appetite. Elihu here regards it as a part of the wholesome discipline of the sufferer. He has no relish for the comforts of life.

And his soul dainty meat - Margin, “meat of desire.” The Hebrew is, “food of desire.” The word rendered “meat” (מאכל ma'ăkâl) does not denote animal food only, but any kind of food. So the Old English word meat was used. The idea is, that the sick man loathes the most delicate food. It is a part of his discipline that the pleasure which he had in the days of his health is now taken away.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 33:20. His life abhorreth bread — These expressions strongly and naturally point out that general nausea, or loathing which sick persons feel in almost every species of disorder.
