Exegesis
The adverb kullō {כֻּלּוֹ | kul-lō} ‘entirely’ leads into a paratactic list of adjectives: šal'anan {שַׁלְאֲנַ֥ן | šal-ʾă-nān} ‘secure’ and wə-šālēv {וְשָׁלֵֽיו | wə-šā-lē-v} ‘and tranquil’, portraying undisturbed repose. This syntactic structure highlights the poignant contrast between human vitality and the universality of death in Job’s argument.
In context — Job 21:23
One dies in full strength, wholly sound , completely at ease and tranquil.
