Contextual Overview

1 Elihu spake moreouer and saide: 2 Thinkest thou it right that thou sayest, I am more righteous then God? 3 For thou sayest: what aduauntage wyll it be vnto thee, and what profite shall I haue of my sinne? 4 Therefore wyll I geue aunswere vnto thee, aud to thy companions with thee. 5 Loke vnto the heauen and beholde it, consider the cloudes which are hyer then thou. 6 If thou hast sinned, what hast thou done against him? If thyne offences be many, what hast thou done vnto him? 7 If thou be righteous, what geuest thou him? or what wyll he receaue of thyne hande? 8 Thy wickednesse [may hurt] a man as thou art, and thy righteousnesse [may profite] the sonne of man.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I will answer thee, and thy companions with thee. Meaning not his three friends, as the Septuagint version expresses it; for they were not on the side of Job, and of the same sentiment with him, but rather on the side of Elihu; especially Eliphaz, who expresses much the same sentiment he does, Job 22:2; but all that were of the same mind with Job, whether present or absent, or in whatsoever part of the world; the answer he should return to him would serve for them all, and sufficiently confute such a bad notion of God, let it be embraced by whomsoever.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I will answer thee - Margin, “return to thee words.” Elihu meant to explain this more fully than it had been done by the friends of Job, and to show where Job was in error.

And thy companions with thee - Eliphaz, in Job 22:2, had taken up the same inquiry, and proposed to discuss the subject, but he had gone at once into severe charges against Job, and been drawn into language of harsh crimination, instead of making the matter clear, and Elihu now proposes to state just how it is, and to remove the objections of Job. It may be doubted, however, whether he was much more successful than Eliphaz had been. The doctrine of the future state, as it is revealed by Christianity, was needful to enable these speakers to comprehend and explain this subject.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 35:4. I will answer thee — I will show thee the evil of a sinful way, and the benefit of righteousness; and supply what thy friends have omitted in their discourses with thee.
