Job 30:23 Context
21Thou art become cruell to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thy selfe against me. 22Thou liftest me vp to the wind: thou causest me to ride vpon it, and dissoluest my substance. 23For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all liuing. 24Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the graue, though they cry in his destruction. 25Did not I weepe for him that was in trouble? was not my soule grieued for the poore?

Wesley's Notes for Job 30:23
30:23 House appointed - The grave is a narrow, dark, cold house, but there we shall rest and be safe. It is our home, for it is our mother's lap, and in it we are gathered to our fathers. It is an house appointed for us, by him that has appointed the bounds of all our habitations. And it is appointed for all living. It is the common receptacle for rich and poor: we must all be brought thither, and that shortly.
