Sorry. I take the Bible as infallible. Job was giving truth. As he said 2 verses later,
14If a man die, shall he live
again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
I suppose that was part of his rhetoric that he had “no clue” as you put it. No, Job was in the spirit and spoke truth you refuse to believe.
As Benson says,
So man lieth down — In his bed the grave, sleeping the sleep of death. And riseth not till the heavens be no more — That is, until the time of the general resurrection and restitution of all things, when these visible heavens shall pass away, and be no more, at least in the same form in which they are now.
Or Poole:
Not until the time of the general resurrection, and the restitution of things, when these visible heavens shall pass away, and be no more, at least in the same form and manner as now they are; of which see
Psalm 102:26 Luke 21:33 2 Peter 3:7,10
Or Gill:
Christ shall come a second time to judge the world; then the earth and heaven will flee away from his face, the earth and its works shall be burnt up, and the heavens shall pass away with great noise; and then, and not till then, will the dead, or those that are asleep in their graves, be awaked by the voice of the archangel, and the trump of God, and they shall be raised from their sleepy beds, awake and arise, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Secondly, why go off topic with insults? I never discussed or brought up Christ speaking to the spirits in prison on his death. You say I’m unlearned, yet it was never mentioned. Is it hard to stay on topic? Than you mention Christ as the firstfruits and I already replied, I know he is. Why than do you talk as if I didn’t say so?
Please stay on topic, that is Job 14:12.
