Contextual Overview

¹ Then Job responded to Yahweh, and said: - ² I know that, all things, thou canst do, and that no purpose can be withholden from thee. ³ Who is it that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore, have I declared, but not understood, things too wonderful for me, which I could not know. ⁴ Hear thou, I pray thee, and, I, will speak, I will ask thee, and inform thou me. ⁵ By the hearing of the ear, had I heard thee, but, now, mine own eye, hath seen thee. ⁶ For this cause, I tremble and repent, on dust and ashes.

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.
