Job 15:13 Meaning and Commentary

Job 15:13

That thou turnest thy spirit against God
Not against men, his friends only, but against God himself, being filled with wrath and indignation at him; showing the enmity of his heart unto him, and committing hostilities upon him, stretching out his hand, and strengthening himself against him, running upon him, on the thick bosses of his buckler, as after expressed:

and lettest [such] words go out of thy mouth?
as in ( Job 9:22 ) ( 10:3 ) ( 12:6 ) ( 13:22-27 ) .

13 so that you vent your rage against God and pour out such words from your mouth?

14 “What are mortals, that they could be pure, or those born of woman, that they could be righteous?

15 If God places no trust in his holy ones, if even the heavens are not pure in his eyes,
