In the Hebrew context, the verb used here can imply a sense of being compelled or pushed against one's will. This reflects the idea of divine judgment or the consequences of one's actions leading to an inevitable outcome. In the broader narrative of Job, it underscores the theme of suffering and the mysterious ways in which God allows or orchestrates events in the lives of individuals.<p><b>from light</b><br />"From light" symbolizes a state of understanding, prosperity, or favor. Biblically, light often represents God's presence, truth, and righteousness. Being removed from light indicates a loss of these blessings and a transition into a state of disfavor or ignorance. This imagery is consistent with the biblical motif of light versus darkness, where light is associated with God's guidance and darkness with chaos or evil.<p><b>into darkness</b><br />"Into darkness" signifies a movement into confusion, despair, or judgment. In the ancient Near Eastern context, darkness was often associated with death, the unknown, or divine disapproval. This transition from light to darkness in the verse highlights the severity of the judgment or the depth of the fall from grace. It serves as a warning of the consequences of living in opposition to God's will.<p><b>and is chased</b><br />The phrase "and is chased" conveys a sense of urgency and relentless pursuit. The Hebrew root here can imply being hunted or pursued with intent. This suggests that the consequences of one's actions are not only inevitable but also actively enforced. It reflects the idea that there is no escape from divine justice or the natural repercussions of one's choices.<p><b>from the inhabited world</b><br />"From the inhabited world" refers to being removed from society or the community of the living. In the historical context, being cut off from the community was one of the most severe forms of punishment or misfortune, as it meant losing one's identity, support, and place in the world. This phrase emphasizes the totality of the judgment, where the individual is not only removed from light but also from the fellowship and life of the community.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/job/18.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 18.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world</span> (comp. <a href="/job/10-21.htm">Job 10:21, 22</a>; <a href="/job/17-16.htm">Job 17:16</a>).
