Contextual Overview

1 Then Job answered and said, 2 I know [it to be] so of a truth: but how should man be just with God? 3 If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand. 4 [He is] wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened [himself] against him, and hath prospered? 5 Who removeth the mountains, and they know not: who overturneth them in his anger. 6 Who shaketh the earth out of her place, and its pillars tremble. 7 Who commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars. 8 Who alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea. 9 Who maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south. 10 Who doeth great things past finding out; yes, and wonders without number.

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

CHAPTER IX

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.
