On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

But these things are here prophesied of under the type and figure of the difference God would make between some and others of the Jews after their return out of captivity, between those that feared God and those that did not, with reproofs of the sins then found among them and promises of the blessings then in reserve for them.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

13 ); and, if we live to enjoy it long, it is the gift of God's providence, for that is here promised: As the days of a tree are the days of my people; as the days of an oak ( ch. vi. 13 ), whose substance is in it, though it cast its leaves; though it be stripped every winter, it recovers itself again, and lasts many ages; as the days of the tree of life; so the LXX.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

De 28:30). tree--among the most long-lived of objects in nature. They shall live as long as the trees they "plant" (compare Isa 61:3, end of verse; Ps 92:12). enjoy--Hebrew, "consume," "wear out"; they shall live to enjoy the last of it (Isa 62:9).
