Contextual Overview

¹ Elihu proceeding in his aunswere, sayde: ² Heare my wordes O ye wise men, hearken vnto me ye that haue vnderstanding: ³ For the eare discerneth wordes, and the mouth tasteth the meates. ⁴ As for iudgement, let vs seke it out among our selues, that we may knowe what is good. ⁵ [And why?] Iob hath sayd, I am righteous, and God hath taken away my iudgement. ⁶ In my right I shoulde be a lyer: my wounde is incurable without my fault. ⁷ Where is there such a one as Iob, that drinketh vp scornefulnesse like water? ⁸ Which goeth in the companie of wicked doers, and walketh with vngodly men? ⁹ For he hath sayde, It profiteth a man nothing that he shoulde walke with God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Hear my words, O ye wise [men],.... This is not an address to Job's three friends, as some think; for Elihu had expressed his displeasure at them, in condemning Job without convicting him, and returning solid answers to him; and therefore he should not take their method of dealing with him, but take another; and plainly suggests that wisdom was not with them, nor taught by them; and therefore, as he could not give flattering titles to men, it could not well be thought that he should address them as wise and understanding men, unless indeed in an ironic way, as some choose to interpret it; see

Job 32:3. Rather therefore some bystanders are here spoken to, whom Elihu knew to be men of wisdom and knowledge, c. as it follows,

and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge and as they were endued not only with natural and political wisdom and knowledge, but with that which is divine and spiritual, they were proper judges of the affair in controversy, and could best discern whether what Elihu delivered was right or wrong, and to the purpose or not. And besides, though they had a large share of wisdom and knowledge, yet it was but imperfect; and the most wise and knowing may become more so, and that sometimes by means of their inferiors and juniors: and therefore Elihu craves their attention to what he had said or should say, though he was but a young man, and they aged, and men of great geniuses and abilities; and the rather he might be pressing on them to be his hearers and judges, because, generally speaking, such, as they are the most judicious, so the most candid hearers.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Hear my words, O ye wise men - Addressing particularly the three friends of Job. The previous chapter had been addressed to Job himself. He had stated to him his views of the design of affliction, and he had nothing to reply. He now addresses himself to his friends, with a particular view of examining some of the sentiments which Job had advanced, and of showing where he was in error. He addresses them as “wise men,” or sages, and as endowed with “knowledge,” to conciliate their attention, and because he regarded them as qualified to understand the difficult subject which he proposed to explain.
