Commentary on Job 7:1
Job compares human existence to 'an appointed time' (warfare) and days like those of a 'hireling' (day laborer). This double metaphor captures life's toilsome, temporary nature under the curse. The military imagery suggests spiritual warfare, while the economic reference highlights human frailty and dependence.
