SEV Biblia, Chapter 38:17

¿Por ventura te han sido descubiertas las puertas de la muerte o has visto las puertas de la sombra de muerte?

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 38:17

Verse 17. Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? ] Dost thou know in what the article of death consists? This is as inexplicable as the question, What is animal life? The doors of the shallow of death? ] twmlx tsalmaveth, the intermediate state, the openings into the place of separate spirits. Here two places are distinguished: twm maveth, death, and twmlx tsalmaveth, the shadow of death. It will not do to say, death is the privation of life, for what then would be the shadow of that privation?

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-24 - The Lord questions Job, to convince him of his ignorance, and shame his for his folly in prescribing to God. If we thus try ourselves, we shal soon be brought to own that what we know is nothing in comparison with what we know not. By the tender mercy of our God, the Day-spring from on high has visited us, to give light to those that sit in darkness whose hearts are turned to it as clay to the seal, 2Co 4:6. God's wa in the government of the world is said to be in the sea; this means that it is hid from us. Let us make sure that the gates of heaven shal be opened to us on the other side of death, and then we need not fea the opening of the gates of death. It is presumptuous for us, wh perceive not the breadth of the earth, to dive into the depth of God' counsels. We should neither in the brightest noon count upon perpetua day, nor in the darkest midnight despair of the return of the morning and this applies to our inward as well as to our outward condition What folly it is to strive against God! How much is it our interest to seek peace with him, and to keep in his love!
