Jó 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 ) .

Jó 15:18 In-Context

16 quanto menos o homem, que é impuro e corrupto,e que bebe iniquidade como água.

17 “Escute-me, e eu explicarei para você;vou dizer a você o que vi,

18 o que os sábios declaramsem esconder o que receberam dos seus pais,

19 a quem foi dada a terra, e a mais ninguém;nenhum estrangeiro passou entre eles:

20 O ímpio sofre tormentos a vida toda,como também o homem cruel,nos poucos anos que lhe são reservados.
