Hiob 29:1 Meaning and Commentary

Job 29:1

Moreover, Job continued his parable
Or "added to take [it] up" F17, that is, he took it up again, and went on with his discourse; he made a pause for awhile, waiting to observe whether any of his three friends would return an answer to what he had said; but perceiving they were not inclined to make any reply, he began again, and gave an account of his former life, in order to show that he was far from being the wicked man, or being so accounted by others, as his friends had represented him:

and said;
as follows.

Hiob 29:1 In-Context

1 Und Hiob hob abermals an seine Sprüche und sprach:
2 O daß ich wäre wie in den vorigen Monden, in den Tagen, da mich Gott behütete;
3 da seine Leuchte über meinem Haupt schien und ich bei seinem Licht in der Finsternis ging;
4 wie war ich in der Reife meines Lebens, da Gottes Geheimnis über meiner Hütte war;
5 da der Allmächtige noch mit mir war und meine Kinder um mich her;
