Cross-References
And he said to the man, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘Do not eat from it’:
If you work the ground, it will never again give you its yield. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth.”
And he named him Noah, saying, “This one will bring us relief from the agonizing labor of our hands, caused by the ground the Lord has cursed.”
When the Lord saw that human wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every inclination of the human mind was nothing but evil all the time,
“Understand that I am bringing a flood—floodwaters on the earth to destroy every creature under heaven with the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish.
God remembered Noah, as well as all the wildlife and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water began to subside.
The sources of the watery depths and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky stopped.
The water steadily receded from the earth, and by the end of 150 days the water had decreased significantly.
After forty days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made,
and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing. Directing himself to Job; and suggesting, that if he was a perfect, sincere, and upright man. God would not cast him away utterly, but help him out of his present circumstances, and restore him to prosperity; and not leave him until he had filled his heart with so much joy, that his mouth and lips, being also full of it, should break forth in strong expressions of it, and in the most exulting strains, as if it was a time of jubilee with him; see Psalms 126:2; but Bildad tacitly insinuates that Job was not a perfect and good man but an evil doer, whom God had cast away and would not help; and this he concluded from the distressed circumstances he was now in; which was no rule of judgment, and a very unfair way of reasoning, since love and hatred are not to be known by outward prosperity and adversity, Ecclesiastes 9:1. Bar Tzemach interprets "laughing" as at his own goodness, and "rejoicing" as at the evil of the wicked.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Till he fill thy mouth with laughing - Until he make thee completely happy. The word rendered âtillâ (×¢× âad), is rendered by Dr. Good, âeven yet.â Noyes, following Houbigant, DeWette, and Michaelis, proposes to change the pointing, and to read ×¢× âoÌd, instead of ×¢× âad - meaning, âwhile.â The verse is connected with that which follows, and the particle used here evidently means âwhile,â or âeven yetâ - and the whole passage means, âif you return to God, he will even yet fill you with joy, while those who hate you shall be clothed with shame. God will show you favor, but the dwelling of the wicked shall come to naught.â The object of the passage is to induce Job to return to God, with the assurance that if he did, he would show mercy to him, while the wicked should be destroyed.
With rejoicing - Margin, âShouting for joy.â The word used (תר×Ö¼×¢× teruÌâaÌh) is properly that which denotes the clangor of a trumpet, or the shout of victory and triumph.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Job 8:21. Till he fill thy mouth with laughing — Perhaps it may be well to translate after Mr. Good "Even yet may he fill thy mouth with laughter!" The two verses may be read as a prayer; and probably they were thus expressed by Bildad, who speaks with less virulence than his predecessor, though with equal positiveness in respect to the grand charge, viz., If thou wert not a sinner of no mean magnitude, God would not have inflicted such unprecedented calamities upon thee.
This most exceptionable position, which is so contrary to matter of fact, was founded upon maxims which they derived from the ancients. Surely observation must have, in numberless instances, corrected this mistake. They must have seen many worthless men in high prosperity, and many of the excellent of the earth in deep adversity and affliction; but the opposite was an article of their creed, and all appearances and facts must take its colouring.
Job's friends must have been acquainted, at least, with the history of the ancient patriarchs; and most certainly they contained facts of an opposite nature. Righteous Abel was persecuted and murdered by his wicked brother, Cain. Abram was obliged to leave his own country on account of worshipping the true God; so all tradition has said. Jacob was persecuted by his brother Esau; Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers; Moses was obliged to flee from Egypt, and was variously tried and afflicted, even by his own brethren. Not to mention David, and almost all the prophets. All these were proofs that the best of men were frequently exposed to sore afflictions and heavy calamities; and it is not by the prosperity or adversity of men in this world, that we are to judge of the approbation or disapprobation of God towards them. In every case our Lord's rule is infallible: By their fruits ye shall know them.
