that You attend to him every morning, and test him every moment?
Job here reasons with God, I. Concerning his dealings with man in general (Job 7:17, Job 7:18): What is man, that thou shouldst magnify him? This may be looked upon either, 1.

Commenting on Job 7:17-21
And that thou shouldest visit him every morning,.... That is, "daily", continually, as Aben Ezra interprets it; either in a way of love, grace, and mercy; so God has visited men, by raising up and sending his Son to be a Redeemer of them; the Son of God has visited them, as the dayspring from on high, by his incarnation and appearance in this world...
With each new day (Psa 73:14). It is rather God's mercies, not our trials, that are new every morning (Lam 3:23). The idea is that of a shepherd taking count of his flock every morning, to see if all are there [COCCEIUS].
