Contextual Overview

1 Then aunswered Bildad the Suhite, and sayde: 2 Is there power and feare with him aboue, that maketh peace sitting in his hyghnesse? 3 Is there any number of his armies, and vpon whom shal not his light arise? 4 But how may a man compared vnto God, be iustified? or how can he be cleane that is borne of a woman? 5 Beholde, the moone shyneth nothing in comparison to him, and the starres are vncleane in his sight. 6 Howe much more then man that is but corruption, and the sonne of man which is but a worme?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite,.... Not to what Job had just now delivered, in order to disprove that, that men, guilty of the grossest crimes, often go unpunished in this life, and prosper and succeed, and die in peace and quietness, as other men; either because he was convinced of the truth of what he had said, or else because he thought he was an obstinate man, and that it was best to let him alone, and say no more to him, since there was no likelihood of working any conviction on him; wherefore he only tries to possess his mind of the greatness and majesty of God, in order to deter him from applying to God in a judicial way, and expecting redress and relief from him;

and said; as follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXV Bildad, the Shuhite, in an irregular speech, shows that God's

dominion is supreme, his armies innumerable, and his providence

extended over all, 1-3; that man cannot be justified before God; that even the heavenly

bodies cannot be reputed pure in his sight; much less man, who

is naturally weak and sinful, 4-6.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXV

Verse Job 25:1. Bildad the Shuhite — This is the last attack on Job; the others felt themselves foiled, though they had not humility enough to acknowledge it, but would not again return to the attack. Bildad has little to say, and that little is very little to the point. He makes a few assertions, particularly in reference to what Job had said in the commencement of the preceding chapter, of his desire to appear before God, and have his case tried by him, as he had the utmost confidence that his innocence should be fully proved. For this Bildad reprehends Job with arguments which had been brought forth often in this controversy, and as repeatedly confuted, Job 4:18; Job 15:14-16.
