יִסּוֹר m. a corrector, a reprover, verbal subst. of the form גִּבּוֹר from the root יָסַר. Job 40:2, הֲרֹב עִס־שַׁדַּי יִסּוֹר “shall the reprover (of God contend) in contending with the Almighty?” רֹב is inf. absol. from the root רִיב used instead of the finite verb, compare Judges 11:25, הֲרֹב רָב עִם יִשְׂרָאֵל where a finite verb is added. Various separate interpreters have rightly explained the single words of this verse (see as to יִסּוֹר Junius and Tremell., as to the form רֹב see Aben Ezra and Kimchi): but I have not found any who have rightly understood the whole. The interpretation which I have given above, was suggested in my larger lexicon [1810], and has been approved by Umbreit, Winer, de Wette, but neglected by Rosenmüller.
