Clarke's Job 17:15 Bible Commentary
And where is now my hope? - In the circumstances in which I am found, of what use can hope be? Were I to form the expectation of future good, who could ever see it realized? Is it then any wonder that I should complain and bemoan my wretched lot?
Barnes's Job 17:15 Bible Commentary
And where is now my hope? - What hope have I of life? What possibility is there of my escape from death?
Who shall see it? - That is, who will see any hopes that I may now cherish fulfilled. If I cherish any, they will be disappointed, and no one will see them accomplished.
Wesley's Job 17:15 Bible Commentary
17:15 Hope - The happiness you would have me expect.
