SEV Biblia, Chapter 27:23
Batirán sus manos sobre él, y desde su lugar le silbarán.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 27:23
Verse 23. Men shall clap their hands at him ] These two verses refer to the storm, which is to sweep away the ungodly; therefore the word God, in ver. 22, and men in this verse, should be omitted. Ver. 22: "For it shall fall upon him, and not spare: flying from its power he shall continue to fly. Ver. 23. It shall clap its hands against him, and hiss, qryw veyishrok, shriek, him out of his place." Here the storm is personified and the wicked actor is hissed and driven by it from off the stage. It seems it was an ancient method to clap the hands against and hiss a man from any public office, who had acted improperly in it. The populace, in European countries, express their disapprobation of public characters who have not pleased them in the same manner to the present day, by hisses, groans, and the like.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-23 - Job's friends, on the same subject, spoke of the misery of wicked me before death as proportioned to their crimes; Job considered that if it were not so, still the consequences of their death would be dreadful Job undertook to set this matter in a true light. Death to a godly man is like a fair gale of wind to convey him to the heavenly country; but to a wicked man, it is like a storm, that hurries him away to destruction. While he lived, he had the benefit of sparing mercy; but now the day of God's patience is over, and he will pour out upon his his wrath. When God casts down a man, there is no flying from, no bearing up under his anger. Those who will not now flee to the arms of Divine grace, which are stretched out to receive them, will not be able to flee from the arms of Divine wrath, which will shortly be stretche out to destroy them. And what is a man profited if he gain the whol world, and thus lose his own soul __________________________________________________________________
