Contextual Overview

1 Iob aunswered, and sayde, 2 I knowe it is so of a trueth: For how may a man [compared] vnto God be iustified? 3 If he wil argue with hym, he can not aunswere hym one thing of a thousande. 4 He is wyse in heart and mightie in strength: who hath ben fearce against hym, and hath prospered? 5 He translateth the mountaynes, or euer they be aware it is he that ouerthroweth them in his wrath. 6 He remoueth the earth out of her place, that the pillers therof shake withall. 7 He commaundeth the sunne, and it ryseth not: he closeth vp the starres as vnder a signet. 8 He hym selfe alone spreadeth out the heauens, and goeth vpon the waues of the sea. 9 He maketh the Waynes of heauen, the Orion, the seuen starres, and the secret places of the south. 10 He doth great thinges & vnsearcheable, yea and wonders without number.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Which shaketh the earth out of her place,.... Can do it, and will do it at the last day, when it shall be utterly broken down, clean dissolved, and reel to and fro like a drunkard, and be removed as a cottage, and which John in a vision saw flee away from the presence of him that sat upon the throne, Isaiah 24:19; for this cannot be understood of earthquakes in common, which are only partial, and do not remove the earth out of its place, only shake some parts of it; and this may also refer to the time of the flood, when the earth received some change and alteration in its situation, as Mr. Burnet in his Theory of the Earth observes; and the Apostle Peter suggests something of this kind, when he distinguishes the present earth from the former, which he says stood out of the water and in it, but the present earth not so, but is reserved for fire, 2 Peter 3:5;

and the pillars thereof tremble; the centre or lower parts of it, see

Psalms 75:3.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Which shaketh the earth out of her place - This evidently refers to violent convulsions of nature, as if the earth were to be taken away. Objects on the earth’s surface become displaced, and convulsion seems to seize the world. The Septuagint renders this, “who shaketh that which is under the heavens from its foundations” - ἐκ Θεμελίων ek themeliōn. The change in the Hebrew would be very slight to authorize this rendering.

And the pillars thereof tremble - In this place the earth is represented as sustained like a building by pillars or columns. Whether this is a mere poetic representation, or whether it describes the actual belief of the speaker in regard to the structure of the earth, it is not easy to determine. I am inclined to think it is the former, because in another place where he is speaking of the earth, he presents his views in another form, and more in acoordance with the truth (see the notes at Job 26:7): and because here the illustration is evidently taken from the obvious and perceived effects of an earthquake. It would convulse and agitate the pillars of the most substantial edifice, and so it seemed to shake the earth, as if its very supports would fall.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Job 9:6. The pillars thereof tremble. — This also refers to an earthquake, and to that tremulous motion which sometimes gives warning of the approaching catastrophe, and from which this violent convulsion of nature has received its name. Earthquakes, in Scripture language, signify also violent commotions and disturbances in states; mountains often signify rulers; sun, empires; stars, petty states. But it is most likely that the expressions here are to be understood literally.
