Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame of it with our ears.
All Commentaries on Job 28:22 Go To Job 28
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Destruction. Hebrew abaddon, which is before (chap. xxvi. 6.) used to signify the bottomless abyss. There, too late! the dead become acquainted with the value and nature of wisdom. (Haydock)
But their knowledge is imperfect, and of no use to us. (Calmet)
