Commentary on Job 3:3
Job curses both the day (yom) of his birth and the night (laylah) of his conception, wishing to erase his entire existence from the cosmic record. The parallel structure intensifies his desire for non-being. This echoes humanity's fallen condition where death seems preferable to suffering, yet faith persists in seeking answers from God.
