Job 20:8

Context

20:8 Like a dream he flies away, never again to be found, 1 

and like a vision of the night he is put to flight.

Job 33:24

Context

33:24 and if 2  God 3  is gracious to him and says,

‘Spare 4  him from going down

to the place of corruption,

I have found a ransom for him,’ 5 

Job 42:15

Context
42:15 Nowhere in all the land could women be found who were as beautiful as Job’s daughters, and their father granted them an inheritance alongside their brothers.

1 tn Heb “and they do not find him.” The verb has no expressed subject, and so here is equivalent to a passive. The clause itself is taken adverbially in the sentence.

2 tn This verse seems to continue the protasis begun in the last verse, with the apodosis coming in the next verse.

3 tn Heb “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

4 tc The verb is either taken as an anomalous form of פָּדַע (pada’, “to rescue; to redeem,” or “to exempt him”), or it is emended to some similar word, like פָּרַע (para’, “to let loose,” so Wright).

5 sn This verse and v. 28 should be compared with Ps 49:7-9, 15 (8-10, 16 HT) where the same basic vocabulary and concepts are employed.
