Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Job answered and said. In reply to Eliphaz; for though he does not direct his discourse to him, nor take any notice of his friends; yet, as a proof of his innocence, against his and their accusations and charges, he desires no other than to have his cause laid before God himself, by whom he had no doubt he should be acquitted; and, contrary to their notions, he shows in this chapter, that he, a righteous man, was afflicted by God, according to his unchangeable decrees; and, in the next, that wicked men greatly prosper; so that what he herein says may be considered as a sufficient answer to Eliphaz and his friends; and after which no more is said to him by them, excepting a few words dropped by Bildad.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXIII

Job answers; apologizes for his complaining; wishes to plead

his cause in the presence of his Maker, from whom he knows he

should receive justice; but regrets that he cannot find him,

1-9.

He, however, gives himself and his cause up to God, with the

conviction of his own innocence, and God's justice and

goodness, 10-14.

He is, nevertheless, afraid when he considers the majesty of

his Maker, 15-17.
