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 ) .

14 What is man, that he should be clean? He who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15 Behold, he puts no trust in his holy ones; Yes, the heavens are not clean in his sight:
