thyself? |
Job 15:8
_ _ secret — rather, “Wast thou a listener in the secret council of God?” The Hebrew means properly the cushions of a divan on which counselors in the East usually sit. God’s servants are admitted to God’s secrets (Psalms 25:14; Genesis 18:17; John 15:15).
_ _ restrain — Rather, didst thou take away, or borrow, thence (namely, from the divine secret council) thy wisdom? Eliphaz in this (Job 15:8, Job 15:9) retorts Job’s words upon himself (Job 12:2, Job 12:3; Job 13:2). |
Job 15:8
Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom (f) to thyself?
