Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Job 9:11

_ _ I see him not: he passeth on — The image is that of a howling wind (Isaiah 21:1). Like it when it bursts invisibly upon man, so God is felt in the awful effects of His wrath, but is not seen (John 3:8). Therefore, reasons Job, it is impossible to contend with Him.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Job 9:1-13.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Job 9:11

Goeth — He works by his providence in ways of mercy or judgment. Passeth — He goeth from place to place: from one action to another: he speaks of God after the manner of men.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Job 9:11

Lo, he goeth (e) by me, and I see [him] not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.

(e) I am not able to comprehend his works, which are common and daily before my eyes, much less in those things, which are hid and secret.
