Commentaire sur Job 14:7
כִּ֤י יֵ֥שׁ לָעֵ֗ץ תִּ֫קְוָ֥ה אִֽם־יִ֭כָּרֵת וְע֣וֹד יַחֲלִ֑יף וְ֝יֹֽנַקְתּ֗וֹ לֹ֣א תֶחְדָּֽל׃
Car pour l’arbre, il est encore de l’espoir; si on le coupe il peut repousser, les rejetons ne lui manquent pas.
Rashi on Job
a tree has This [tree] has hope that it will renew itself and its bough will not cease from being a branch.

Malbim on Job
Rejecting Zophar's thesis that the virtuous receive their real reward in the Hereafter, Job argues that unlike trees that may hope to revive after being cut down, man has nothing to hope for after death.
