Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

8. (Ps 73:20).

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

20:1-9 Zophar's discourse is upon the certain misery of the wicked. The triumph of the wicked and the joy of the hypocrite are fleeting. The pleasures and gains of sin bring disease and pain; they end in remorse, anguish, and ruin. Dissembled piety is double iniquity, and the ruin that attends it will be accordingly.


Job 18:18 "He is driven from light into darkness, And chased from the inhabited world.
Job 27:21 "The east wind carries him away, and he is gone, For it whirls him away from his place.
Psalm 73:20 Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord, when aroused, You will despise their form.
Psalm 90:5 You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep; In the morning they are like grass which sprouts anew. (NASB ©1995)
