Contextual Overview
Job
I know, Lord , that you are all-powerful; that you can do everything you want. 3 You ask how I dare question your wisdom when I am so very ignorant. I talked about things I did not understand, about marvels too great for me to know. 4 You told me to listen while you spoke and to try to answer your questions. 5 In the past I knew only what others had told me, but now I have seen you with my own eyes. 6 So I am ashamed of all I have said and repent in dust and ashes.Bible Verse Review

Cross-References
and the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in every other country, but there was food throughout Egypt.
People came to Egypt from all over the world to buy grain from Joseph, because the famine was severe everywhere.
I hear that there is grain in Egypt; go there and buy some to keep us from starving to death."
So Joseph's ten half brothers went to buy grain in Egypt,
but Jacob did not send Joseph's full brother Benjamin with them, because he was afraid that something might happen to him.
The foremen realized that they were in trouble when they were told that they had to make the same number of bricks every day as they had made before.
When the people heard the thunder and the trumpet blast and saw the lightning and the smoking mountain, they trembled with fear and stood a long way off.
The Lord said to Joshua, "Get up! Why are you lying on the ground like this?
Elijah was afraid and fled for his life; he took his servant and went to Beersheba in Judah. Leaving the servant there,
It is your responsibility to act. We are behind you, so go ahead and get it done."
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then Job answered the Lord, and said. For though he had said he would answer no more, Job 40:5; yet he might mean not in the manner he had, complaining of God and justifying himself; besides he might change his mind without any imputation of falsehood or a lie; see
Jeremiah 20:9; to which may be added, that he had then said all he had to say, and did not know he should have more: he then confessed as much as he was convinced of, but it was not enough; and now through what the Lord had since said to him he was more convinced of his ignorance, mistakes, and sins, and had such a sight of God and of himself, that he could not forbear speaking; moreover an injunction was laid upon him from the Lord to speak again, and therefore he was obliged to give in his answer; see Job 40:7.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XLII
Job humbles himself before God, 1-6.
God accepts him; censures his three friends; and commands Job
to offer sacrifices for then, that he might pardon and accept
them, as they had not spoken what was right concerning their
Maker, 7-9.
The Lord turns Job's captivity; and his friends visit him, and
bring him presents, 10, 11.
Job's affluence becomes double to what it was before, 12.
His family is also increased, 13-15.
Having lived one hundred and forty years after his calamities,
he dies, 16, 17.
