Job 5:27

"You will come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season."

Key Reflection

This verse suggests a life lived fully and purposefully, much like grain that ripens at the right time. It implies that one's journey on earth will be complete and fulfilling, ending naturally when ripe, just as grain is harvested in its season.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Lo this -All this that I have said; the truth of all the remarks which I have made. We have searched it -We have by careful observation of the course of events come to these conclusions. These are our views of the providence of God, and of the principles of his government, as far as we have had the opportunity of observing, and they are well worthy of your attention.
