Job 32:13
_ _ This has been so ordered, “lest you should” pride yourselves on having overcome him by your “wisdom” (Jeremiah 9:23, the great aim of the Book of Job); and that you may see, “God alone can thrust him down,” that is, confute him, “not man.” So Elihu grounds his confutation, not on the maxims of sages, as the friends did, but on his special commission from God (Job 32:8; Job 33:4, Job 33:6). |
Job 32:13
Left — God thus left you to your own weakness, lest you should ascribe the conquering or silencing of Job to your own wisdom. God — This is alleged by Elihu, in the person of Job's three friends; the sense is, the judgments which are upon Job, have not been brought upon him by man originally, but by the hand of God, for his gross, though secret sins: but, saith Elihu, this argument doth not satisfy me, and therefore bear with me if I seek for better. |
Job 32:13
Lest ye should say, We have (h) found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
