Job 10:1-2 'In a man under the immediate pressure of a great sorrow,' says George Eliot in her Essays, 'we tolerate morbid exaggerations, we are prepared to see him turn away a weary eye from sunlight and flowers and sweet human faces, as if this rich and glorious life had no significance but as a preliminary of death; we do not criticize his views, we compassionate his feelings.'

X.THE THOUGHT OF A DAYSMANJob 9:1-35; Job 10:1-22Job SPEAKSIT is with an infinitely sad restatement of what God has been made to appear to him by Bildad’s speech that Job begins his reply. Yes, yes; it is so. How can man be just before such a God? You tell me my children are overwhelmed with destruction for their sins. You tell me that I, who am not quite dead as yet, may have new prosperity if I put myself into right relations with God. But how can that be? There is no uprightness, no... read more

CHAPTERS 9-10 Job Answers Bildad 1. The supremacy and power of God (Job 9:1-10 ) 2. How then can Job meet Him? (Job 9:11-21 ) 3. He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked (Job 9:22-24 ) 4. Confession of weakness and the need of a daysman (Job 9:25-35 ) 5. Murmuring against God (Job 10:1-17 ) 6. Welcoming death (Job 10:18-22 ) Job 9:1-10 . The final words of Bildad seemed to have had a momentary soothing effect upon Job. Of a truth it is so. But here is the question, How can a man be... read more

10:21 Before I go [whence] I shall not {t} return, [even] to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;(t) He speaks this in the person of a sinner, that is overcome with passions and with the feeling of God’s judgments and therefore cannot apprehend in that state the mercies of God, and the comfort of the resurrection. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Job 10:1-22

AN ATTEMPT TO REASON WITH GOD (vv.1-22) Since there was no mediator, Job in this chapter (from verse 2 on) directs all of his words directly to God, reasoning with Him as regards why God should deal with him in the way He was doing. He begins his compliant by repeating that his soul loathes his life, therefore he would allow himself to give free course to his bitter complaint by directly addressing God, pleading with Him, "Do not condemn me." God had certainly not condemned him, though he... read more

Job's Answer to Bildad. II. Job 9-10 We must remember, if we would understand Job's mournful and noble complaint and eloquence, that Job himself is utterly unaware of the circumstances under which he is suffering. Unfortunately for ourselves as readers, we know all that the historian or dramatist can tell us about the case; but Job knew only his suffering. A Why? almost indignant came from his lips again and again. And no wonder. It is one thing, we have seen, to read the Book of Job, and... read more

(14) ¶ If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity. (15) If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction; (16) For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me. (17) Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war are against me. (18) Wherefore then hast thou... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Job 10:22

REFLECTIONS OUR views of Job in this chapter are various. In one part of it, we behold him in the exercise of grace. In another under the frettings of nature. Alas! What is man in his highest attainments, when for a moment he loseth sight of JESUS? My Brother! if you know anything of your own heart, you will know also, if so be that the LORD hath quickened you, to a new and spiritual life, that you are still in the body; and a body of sin and death, which drags down the soul. Much of nature as... read more
