Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 33:29
Commentary on Job 33:29-33
(Read Job 33:29-33)

By whatever means we are kept back from the we shall bless the Lord for them at least, and should bless him for them though they be painful and distressing. Those that perish for ever are without excuse, for they would not be healed.
