Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Job answered,.... In a very sharp and biting manner; one would wonder that a man in such circumstances should have so much keenness of spirit, and deal in so much irony, and be master of so much satire, and be able to laugh at his antagonist in the manner he does:

and said; as follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXVI

Job, perceiving that his friends could no longer support their

arguments on the ground they had assumed, sharply reproves

them for their want both of wisdom and feeling, 1-4;

shows that the power and wisdom of God are manifest in the

works of creation and providence; gives several proofs; and

then adds that these are a small specimen of his infinite

skill and unlimited power, 5-14.
