After his ejection, Caryl gathered an independent congregation close to London Bridge from among his former hearers. There he remained for the rest of his life. After his death he was succeeded by the well-known Dr. John Owen. Caryl was a man of great piety and learning, as well as of great modesty. It was testified of him: "He lived his sermons." His expositions on the book of Job consist of 424 sermons preached over a period of twenty-four years! As a Puritan commentator on the Book of Job he ranks as the most elaborate and thorough expositor. He deals with the whole book of Job consecutively in a textual manner, highlighting linguistic details and providing a wealth of spiritual application. Because of the sheer volume of this work it is difficult to write a comprehensive review. The strength of his commentary lies clearly in the wealth of practical spiritual insights it offers. A few samples follow. On Job 15:4 4 Yea, thou doest away with fear, And hinderest devotion before God. Caryl remarks, "Natural fear shrivels and shrinks up the heart; spiritual fear opens and widens it: and the reason is, because this fear is always accompanied and espoused with faith; and faith causes joy, and joy is the dilatation of the heart." On Job 26:9 9 He incloseth the face of his throne, And spreadeth his cloud upon it. we read, "Further, as God hideth his glory from man, because he is not able to bear it all; so he hideth much of that from him which he is able to bear, both to make him hunger and thirst the more after it, and to draw him unto the greater reverence and estimation of it." Commenting on Job 27:10 10 Will he delight himself in the Almighty, And call upon God at all times? , Caryl elaborates on the marks of a hypocrite. "The hypocrite delights not in God. There is his sin. Secondly, God hears not the cry of the hypocrite. That is his misery. Thirdly, the hypocrite will not always call upon God. That is both his sin and his misery."
