Job 14:12 (ESV)

12 so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more he will not awake or be roused out of his sleep.

It is not that Job has no hope of an afterlife or a resurrection (although, in the New Testament, this hope will certainly become clearer and more pronounced). Yet there is a certain finality to death, for us as New Testament believers as much as for Job.
