SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:9
al olor del agua reverdecerá, y hará copa como nueva planta.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 14:9
Verse 9. Through the scent of water it will bud ] A fine metaphor: the water acts upon the decaying and perishing tree, as strong and powerful odours from musk, otto of roses, ammonia, &c., act on a fainting or swooning person.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 7-15 - Though a tree is cut down, yet, in a moist situation, shoots com forth, and grow up as a newly planted tree. But when man is cut off by death, he is for ever removed from his place in this world. The life of man may fitly be compared to the waters of a land flood, which sprea far, but soon dry up. All Job's expressions here show his belief in the great doctrine of the resurrection. Job's friends proving miserabl comforters, he pleases himself with the expectation of a change. If ou sins are forgiven, and our hearts renewed to holiness, heaven will be the rest of our souls, while our bodies are hidden in the grave from the malice of our enemies, feeling no more pain from our corruptions or our corrections.
