| Psalms 102:16 | For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more. | In him. Or "over it;" the flower. Or the spirit of God's indignation will overwhelm him. The soul of man departs, and cannot naturally be reunited with the body, though it greatly desire that union. (Calmet) --- The longest life is but like the duration of a flower, (Isaias 40:6.; Haydock) and the splendour of the noblest families is no better in the sight of God. (St. Augustine) |
