Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 19:18

_ _ young children — So the Hebrew means (Job 21:11). Reverence for age is a chief duty in the East. The word means “wicked” (Job 16:11). So Umbreit has it here, not so well.

_ _ I arose — Rather, supply “if,” as Job was no more in a state to stand up. “If I stood up (arose), they would speak against (abuse) me” [Umbreit].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 19:8-22.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 19:18

Arose — From my seat, to shew my respect to them, though they were my inferiors.
