Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 16. - His roots shall be dried up beneath. He shall be like a tree whose roots no moisture reaches, and which, therefore, withers and dries up (comp. Job 14:8, 9; Job 29:19). And above shall his branch be cut off; or, be withered (comp. Job 14:2, where the same verb is used).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) His roots shall be dried up.--With tacit allusion to what he had said in Job 8:12, and also to the destruction of Job's own offspring, which had already been accomplished.
