Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 1:12

_ _ in thy power — Satan has no power against man till God gives it. God would not touch Job with His own hand, though Satan asks this (Job 1:11, “thine”), but He allows the enemy to do so.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 1:6-12.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 1:12

Behold, &c. — It seems strange, that, God should give Satan such a permission as this. But he did it for his own glory, for the honour of Job, for the explanation of providence, and the encouragement of his afflicted people in all ages.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Job 1:12

And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath [is] in (t) thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the (u) presence of the LORD.

(t) God does not give Satan power over man to gratify him, but to declare that he has no power over man, but that which God gives him.

(u) That is, went to execute that which God had permitted him to do for else he can never go out of God's presence.
