Contextual Overview

¹ Then Iob answered, and sayd, ² I knowe verily that it is so: for howe should man compared vnto God, be iustified? ³ If I would dispute with him, hee could not answere him one thing of a thousand. ⁴ He is wise in heart, & mighty in stregth: who hath bene fierce against him & hath prospered? ⁵ He remoueth the mountaines, and they feele not when he ouerthroweth them in his wrath. ⁶ Hee remooueth the earth out of her place, that the pillars thereof doe shake. ⁷ He commandeth the sunne, & it riseth not: hee closeth vp the starres, as vnder a signet. ⁸ Hee himselfe alone spreadeth out the heauens, and walketh vpon the height of the sea. ⁹ He maketh the starres Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the climates of the South. ¹⁰ He doeth great things, and vnsearcheable: yea, marueilous things without nomber.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Job answered and said. Without taking notice of Bildad's harsh expressions and severe censures, or his unfriendliness to him; he enters directly into the argument, grants some things, confutes others, and defends himself and his conduct.

without any respect to their works: and hath delivered the

earth into the hands of the wicked, 11-24.
