Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 20. - They are destroyed from morning to evening. Human bodies undergo a continuous destruction. From the moment that we are born we begin to die. Decay of powers is coeval with their first exercise. Our insidious foe, Death, marks us as his own from the very first breath that we draw. Our bodies are machines wound up to go for a certain time. The moment that we begin to use them we begin to wear them out. They perish for ever. The final result is that Our" houses of clay "perish, crumble to dust, disappear, and come to nothing. They "perish for ever," says Eliphaz, repeating what he believed the spirit of ver. 15 to have said to him; but it is not clear that he understood more by this than that they perish and disappear for ever, so far as this life and this world are concerned. Without any regarding it. No one is surprised or thinks it hard. It is the lot of man, and every one's mind is prepared for it.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(20) From morning to evening.--The process is continual and unceasing, and when we consider the ravages of time on history, we may well say, as in Job 4:20, that "none regardeth it."The next verse, however, may seem to imply that they themselves are unmindful of their decay, it is so insidious and so complete.
