SCRIPTURE

"Those that remain of him shall be buried in death, And his widows shall make no lamentation." — Job 27:15 (ASV)

Those that remain of him shall be buried in death. —That is, as the context shows, it shall be obscure, and excite no sympathy; their very death shall be, as it were, a burial, and shall consign them to oblivion.

His widows. —That is, those commonly hired for the purpose of making lamentation for the dead, or the widows of those that remain of him.
