Clarke's Commentary on the BibleThey shall lie down alike in the dust - Death levels all distinctions, and the grave makes all equal. There may be a difference in the grave itself; but the human corpse is the same in all. Splendid monuments enshrine corruption; but the sod must lie close and heavy upon the putrefying carcass, to prevent it from becoming the bane of the living. Treasury of Scripture Knowledge alike Job 3:18,19 There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor... Job 20:11 His bones are full of the sin of his youth, which shall lie down with him in the dust. Ecclesiastes 9:2 All things come alike to all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good and to the clean, and to the unclean... the worms Job 17:14 I have said to corruption, You are my father: to the worm, You are my mother, and my sister. Job 19:26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Psalm 49:14 Like sheep they are laid in the grave; death shall feed on them; and the upright shall have dominion over them in the morning... Isaiah 14:11 Your pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of your viols: the worm is spread under you, and the worms cover you. Job 21:26 Parallel Commentaries
