542:1
In quo, exposito capite xiv libri Job, a versu quinto, caput xv ex integro plerumque moraliter explicatur. [ Vet. et Rec.

在此，約伯記第十四章從第五節起已作講解，第十五章大體上完全按靈意加以闡釋。義人的習慣是：越是勤勉地學會衡量屬天家鄉的永恆美善，就越發殷切地思想今生是何等短暫易逝。因為從他們內心所看見的那些常存之物，他們就更精細地留意外在那些逝去之物的飛逝。故此有福的約伯，在他既已就人類時光的墜落發出一句話，說：「人為婦人所生，日子短少」；又說：「他飛逝如影，絕不停留在同一狀態中」之後，仍就他生命的短暫補充說：
