Job 32:10 Meaning and Commentary

Job 32:10

Therefore I said, hearken to me
Thou O Job, and every one of you his friends, for the word is singular; though I am but a young man, yet if I have the Spirit of God, and am under the inspiration of the Almighty, I may be able to say something to you worth your hearing:

I also will show mine opinion;
for though for a while he was timorous and fearful of doing it, lest he should mistake and expose himself, yet having duly weighed and considered the above things, he was determined to do it.

Job 32:10 In-Context

8 However, there is in humans a Spirit, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding.
9 People do not become wise merely because they live long. They don't understand what justice is merely because they're old.
10 "That is why I say, 'Listen to me! Let me tell you what I know.'
11 I waited for you to speak. I listened for you to share your understanding until you could find the right words.
12 I've paid close attention to you, but none of you refuted Job. None of you has an answer to what he says.
