Literally, “from the hand of she’ol” (see on Prov. 15:11), a vivid personification.
He shall receive me.
Better, “He shall receive me for Himself.” In this short clause, all the more powerful because of its brevity, is a suggestion of the doctrine of a future life and the resurrection from the dead (see PK 264). In Gen. 5:24 another form of the same verb describes the translation of Enoch (see 2 Kings 2:10).
