Job 20:9 - Exposition

The eye also which saw him shall see him no more ; or, the eye which scanned him. The verb used ( שָׁזַךְ ) is a rare one, occurring only here, in Job 28:7 , and in So Job 1:6 . In the former passage it is used of a falcon, in the latter of the sun. Neither shall his place any more behold him (comp. Psalms 103:16 , "The place thereof shall know it no more").
