‏ Isaiah 38:12

Verse 12. Mine age-is removed from me as a shepherd's tent]

roi is put for roeh, say the rabbis (Sal. ben Melec on the place;) but much more probably is written imperfectly for roim, shepherds. See Clarke on Isa 5:1.

I shall be removed from this state to another, as a shepherd removes his tent from one place to another for the sake of his flock. Is not this a strong intimation of his belief in a future state?

I have cut off like a weaver my life-"My life is cut off as by the weaver"] kippadti. This verb is rendered passively, and in the third person, by the Syriac, Chaldee, and Vulgate.
