Giobbe 15:18

18 Il che i savi hanno narrato, E non l’hanno celato, avendolo ricevuto da’ padri loro;

Giobbe 15:18 Meaning and Commentary

Job 15:18

Which wise men have told from their fathers
Men wise in the best sense, not to do evil, but to do good; not worldly wise men, but such who have wisdom, sound wisdom in the inward parts; who are wise to salvation, and who are partakers of divine and spiritual wisdom; and such men, as they would never tell an untruth, so they would never report a false or a foolish thing they had heard, nor any thing but upon a good testimony, what they have received from their fathers, who were also wise and good men; and therefore such a testimony, though not ocular, but by tradition, deserves regard:

and have not hid [it];
their fathers did not hide it from them, and what they have received from their fathers they did not hide it from their children; and so it came to be handed down from one to another with great truth, exactness, and certainty, and to be depended upon, see ( Psalms 44:1 ) ( Psalms 78:3 Psalms 78:4 ) .

Giobbe 15:18 In-Context

16 Quanto più abbominevole e puzzolente È l’uomo, che beve l’iniquità come acqua?

17 Io ti dichiarerò, ascoltami pure, E ti racconterò ciò che io ho veduto;

18 Il che i savi hanno narrato, E non l’hanno celato, avendolo ricevuto da’ padri loro;

19 A’ quali soli la terra fu data, E per mezzo i cui paesi non passò mai straniero.

20 L’empio è tormentato tutti i giorni della sua vita; Ed al violento è riposto un piccol numero d’anni.
