Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) Grave.--Sheol. Here, as in Psalm 6:4-5; Psalm 33:19; Isaiah 38:10-11, there comes into prominence the thought that death severs the covenant relation with God, and so presents an irresistible reason why prayer should be heard now before it is too late.
