Job 14:2 in context

Job 14:2

Like a flower, she grows up and withers (dries up; falls down) [James 1:10; Psalm 37:2; 90:5–6],
she flees like a shadow and is no longer there (does not remain).
[By using days instead of years, the fleeting nature of human existence is emphasized in the larger perspective. The shadow is constantly "chasing" away, disappearing completely in the Middle East at midday when the sun is at its zenith. But it can also refer to the onset of night when the sun goes down and the shadows grow longer, only to disappear completely in the darkness. Job's other friend, Bildad, also likened life to a shadow, see Job 8:9. See also 1 Chron. 29:15; Ps. 102:11; 144:4; Lam. 4:20]
