Job 13:8
_ _ accept his person — God’s; that is, be partial for Him, as when a judge favors one party in a trial, because of personal considerations.
_ _ contend for God — namely, with fallacies and prepossessions against Job before judgment (Judges 6:31). Partiality can never please the impartial God, nor the goodness of the cause excuse the unfairness of the arguments. |
Job 13:8
Accept — Not judging according to the right of the cause, but the quality or the person. |
Job 32:21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.
Job 34:19 [ How much less to him] that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all [ are] the work of his hands.
Exodus 23:2- 3 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to [ do] evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest [ judgment]: ... Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
Proverbs 24:23 These [things] also [ belong] to the wise. [It is] not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
Malachi 2:9 Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
