Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 6:10

_ _ I would harden myself in sorrow — rather, “I would exult in the pain,” if I knew that that pain would hasten my death [Gesenius]. Umbreit translates the Hebrew of “Let Him not spare,” as “unsparing”; and joins it with “pain.”

_ _ concealed — I have not disowned, in word or deed, the commands of the Holy One (Psalms 119:46; Acts 20:20). He says this in answer to Eliphaz’ insinuation that he is a hypocrite. God is here called “the Holy One,” to imply man’s reciprocal obligation to be holy, as He is holy (Leviticus 19:2).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 6:8-13.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 6:10

Harden — I would bear up with courage under all my torments, with the hopes of death, and blessedness after death. Spare — Not suffer me to live any longer. Concealed — As I have steadfastly believed them, and not wilfully departed from them, so I have not been ashamed, nor afraid, boldly to profess and preach the true religion in the midst of Heathens. And therefore I know if God doth cut me off, I shall be a gainer by it.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes
