Clarke's Job 27:22 Bible Commentary
God shall cast upon him - Or, rather, the storm mentioned above shall incessantly pelt him, and give him no respite; nor can he by any means escape from its fury.
Barnes's Job 27:22 Bible Commentary
For God shall cast upon him - That is, God shall bring calamities upon him, or cast his thunderbolts upon him, and shall not pity him.
He would fain flee - He would gladly escape from the wrath of God, but he is unable to do it.
Wesley's Job 27:22 Bible Commentary
27:22 Cast - His darts or plagues one after another. Would flee - He earnestly desires to escape the judgments of God, but in vain. Those that will not be persuaded to fly to the arms of Divine grace, which are now stretched out to receive them, will not be able to flee from the arms of Divine wrath, which will shortly be stretched out to destroy them.
