Job 33:28

28 Dios me rescató de la tumba
y ahora mi vida está llena de luz”.

Job 33:28 Meaning and Commentary

Job 33:28

He will deliver his soul from going into the pit
Into the pit of the grave; and then the soul is put for the man or for the body; or into the pit of hell or perdition:

and his life shall see the light;
or he shall live and enjoy outward prosperity here, and the light of eternal happiness hereafter; and so the Targum interprets it of superior light, or the light above, even the inheritance of the saints in light. These words have a double reading; the "Keri", or marginal reading, is what we follow; but the "Cetib", or textual reading, is, "he hath delivered my soul from going into the pit, and my life sees the light"; and which seems to be the better reading; and so the words are a continuation of the address of the man recovered from illness to his friends; setting forth and acknowledging, with joy and thankfulness, the great goodness of God unto him, that he had delivered him from the grave, and spared his life, and given him to enjoy great prosperity, both temporal and spiritual.

Job 33:28 In-Context

26 Cuando él ore a Dios,
será aceptado
y Dios lo recibirá con alegría
y lo restaurará a una relación correcta.

27 Declarará a sus amigos:
“Pequé y torcí la verdad,
pero no valió la pena.

28 Dios me rescató de la tumba
y ahora mi vida está llena de luz”.

29 »Así es, Dios actúa de esa forma
una y otra vez por las personas.

30 Él las rescata de la tumba
para que disfruten de la luz de la vida.
