Job 13:18 - Exposition

Behold now, I have ordered my cause ; i.e. I have prepared my pleadings, and arranged them; I know what I am about to say. Also I know that I shall be justified . I am confident, i.e. ' that tile cause, if it be fully heard, will be decided in my favour. It will appear that I have not brought my calamities upon myself by my own misdoings. Of justification, in the forensic sense, of imputed righteousness, with its concomitant ideas, Job, of course, knows nothing.
