Contextual Overview

¹And Job answers and says:²"Truly I have known that [it is] so, || But how is man righteous with God? ³If he delights to strive with Him—He does not answer him one of a thousand. ⁴Wise in heart and strong in power—Who has hardened toward Him and is at peace? ⁵Who is removing mountains, || And they have not known, || Who has overturned them in His anger. ⁶Who is shaking earth from its place, || And its pillars move themselves. ⁷Who is commanding to the sun, and it does not rise, || And the stars He seals up. ⁸Stretching out the heavens by Himself, || And treading on the heights of the sea, ⁹Making the Great Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, || And the inner chambers of the south. ¹⁰Doing great things until there is no searching, || And wonderful, until there is no numbering.

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.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Job acknowledges God's justice and man's sinfulness, 1-3.

Celebrates his almighty power as manifested in the earth and

in the heavens, 4-10.

Maintains that God afflicts the innocent as well as the wicked,

without any respect to their works: and hath delivered the

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

Complains of his lot, and maintains his innocence, 25-35.
