Job 35:1 Meaning and Commentary

Job 35:1

Elihu spake moreover, and said.
] Elihu very probably paused awhile, and waited to observe whether any of the company would rise up, and either contradict and refute what he had said, or declare their assent unto it and approbation of it; or rather to see whether Job would make any reply or not; but perceiving no inclination in him to it, he proceeded to take notice of some other undue expressions of Job, and refute them; one of which is observed in ( Job 35:2 ) , and the proof of it given in ( Job 35:3 ) .

Job 35:1 In-Context

1 Élihu reprit la parole, et dit:
2 As-tu pensé avoir raison de dire: Je suis juste devant Dieu?
3 Car tu as dit: Que m'en revient-il, et qu'y gagnerai-je de plus qu'à mon péché?
4 Je te répondrai en mes discours, et à tes amis avec toi:
5 Regarde les cieux, et les considère; vois les nues, elles sont plus hautes que toi.
