Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Job 1:6-12

Job was not only so rich and great, but withal so wise and good, and had such an interest both in heaven and earth, that one would think the mountain of his prosperity stood so strong that it could not be moved; but here we have a thick cloud gathering over his head, pregnant with a horrible tempest. We must never think ourselves secure from storms while we are in this lower region. Before we are told how his troubles surprised and seized him here in this visible world, we are here told how... read more

But put forth thine hand now ,.... With draw thine hand of providence, power, and protection, with which thou hast covered and screened him; and, instead of that, "send" F21 שלח "mitte", Pagninus, Montanus, Junius & Tremellius, Schmidt. forth thine afflicting hand, not barely in a way of chastisement and correction, but in wrath and vengeance, consuming and destroying all he had; and this he desires might be done now, immediately, without delay, while Job was in the midst of his... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Job 1:11

But put forth thine hand - Shoot the dart of poverty and affliction against him. And he will curse thee to thy face - יברכך פניך על לא אם im lo al paneycha yebarechecca , "If he will not bless thee to thy appearances." He will bless thee only in proportion to the temporal good thou bestowest upon him; to the providential and gracious appearances or displays of thy power in his behalf. If thou wilt be gracious, he will be pious. The exact maxim of a great statesman, Sir Robert... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Job 1:6-12

Counsels in heaven concerning ,man's life on earth. I. EVERY MAN 'S LIFE IS AN OBJECT OF INTEREST IN HEAVEN . This is a sublime thought, powerfully suggested by the present passage, and full of comfort for every man who trusts in the goodness of God. "Every man's life a plan of God's" (see the powerful sermon of Dr. Bushnell on this subject). Even of men who do not consciously know God or own his providence, this is true. Their career is controlled by a mysterious... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Job 1:6-19

The trial of the righteous man. The central subject of this book is the trial of the righteous man. Job is acknowledged of God to be "a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil." Yet he is tried, and tried sorely, and by permission of God. The difficulty to be solved by the history of Job is—How can it come to pass that the righteous suffer? To what end is this permitted? The trial of Job is divided into two parts—the first is briefly recounted, it contains the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Job 1:11

But put forth thine hand now ; literally, send forth thy hand, as a man does who strikes a blow (comp. Genesis 22:12 ; Exodus 3:20 ; Exodus 9:15 , etc.). And touch all that he hath ; or, smite all that he hath ; i.e. ruin him, strip him of his possessions. And he will curse thee to thy face. Professor Lee translates, "If not, he will bless thee to thy face;" the LXX ; "Surely he will bless thee to thy face;" Canon Cook, "See if he will not renounce thee openly." But the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Job 1:11

But put forth thine hand now - That is, for the purpose of injuring him, and taking away his property.And touch all that he hath - Dr. Good renders this, “and smite.” The Vulgate and the Septuagint, “touch.” The Hebrew word used here נגע nâga‛ means properly to “touch;” then to touch anyone with violence Genesis 26:11; Joshua 9:19, and then to smite, to injure, to strike; see Genesis 32:26, 33; 1 Samuel 6:9; Job 19:21; compare the notes at Isaiah 53:4. Here it means evidently to smite or... read more

Job 1:11. But put forth thy hand now In a way of justice and severity, as the phrase of putting or stretching forth God’s hand is used, Isaiah 5:25, and Ezekiel 25:7; Ezekiel 25:13; Ezekiel 25:16: and touch all that he hath That is, afflict or destroy his children and substance; and he will curse thee to thy face He who is now so forward to serve and bless thee, will then openly and boldly blaspheme thy name, and reproach thy providence as unjust and unmerciful to him. Or, as Schultens... read more
