Wells of Living Water Commentary - Job 33:1-33

High Altitudes in Elihu's Answer to Job Job 32:1-22 , Job 33:1-33 , Job 34:1-37 , Job 35:1-16 , Job 36:1-33 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We now come to that part of the Book of Job which presents a most remarkable message spoken by a young man of spiritual integrity. Elihu had evidently been listening to the words of Job, and of his three friends. His spirit had waxed hot within him as he listened; and yet he did not deign to make a reply until the three men utterly collapsed in their arguments and... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Job 33:18-33

God's Method of Grace Job 33:18-33 INTRODUCTORY WORDS In our Scripture today Elihu is addressing Job, and his three supposed friends. Elihu had listened to the speeches of Bildad, Zophar, and Eliphaz. He had also heard Job's speeches, or responses, to these men. As Elihu listened his spirit was deeply moved because he saw that Job's friends had utterly missed the mark of the Divine purpose and plan, and that Job, also, had sought, in the face of their onslaught, to justify himself. Elihu is... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Job 33:19-30

Job 33:19-Amos : . There is a second way, when a man is brought near to death, and the destroying angels wait to take his life. Then an angel of mercy instructs man in the meaning of his suffering, intercedes for him, and provides a ransom from the destroyer, so that he is restored to health, and avows before men his own sin and God’ s mercy. In these and other ways God savingly deals with men.In Job 33:21 read “ his flesh is consumed by wasting” (Duhm), instead of “ consumed that it cannot... read more

Then; in that case, or upon the sick man’s knowledge and practice of his duty. He; either, 1. The messenger or interpreter last mentioned, who is pitiful unto the sick man, and in companion to him doth all that he can for him, counselling and comforting him, and praying to God for his recovery in the following words, Deliver him, & c. for the sake of that ransom which thou hast revealed and I have discovered to him.

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Job 33:1-33

ELIHU’S FIRST SPEECHElihu addresses himself to Job on the subject of God’s afflictive dispensations. Afflictions often disciplinary chastisements.I. He bespeaks Job’s careful attention to all that he has to advanceJob 33:1.—“Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, near my speeches and hearken to all my words.” Elihu speaks as one that had much to say. His speech, or perhaps rather speeches, much the longest of any in the controversy. Probably two speeches, separated by a pause or interval of silence (ch.... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Job 33:24

Job 33:24 It was a hard and marvellous thing to find that ransom, something so precious and so vast that it should outweigh in God's balances the sin and the condemnation of the whole world. Looking at that ransom, we see: I. What a hateful thing sin is sin, that needed such cancelling; sin, that murdered that ransom! You will never see sin as it really is till you look at it from the foot of the Cross. II. Of what value must your soul be to God if that was expended upon it! See your dignity... read more

DISCOURSE: 484THE BENEFIT OF VISITING THE SICKJob 33:23-24. If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness; then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit; I have found a ransom.ELIHU was not one of the particular friends of Job. He was a young man, who, on the occasion of Job’s friends assembling together, had been admitted to hear rather than to speak. But when he had heard the repeated attempts of... read more

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Job 33:24

Deliverance from the Pit June 21, 1885 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom." Job 33:24 . Let never be forgotten that, in all that God does, he acts from good reasons. You observe that the text, speaking of the sick man, represents God as saying, "Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom." If I understand the passage as relating solely to a sick man, and take the words just... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Job 33:1-33

Job 33:4 . The Spirit of God hath made me. See on Genesis 2:7, and Psalms 33:6. The creation of man was known to all the descendants of Noah, much the same as to Moses. Sanchoniatho the Phœnician historian, the Brahmins of India, the Sibyls of the Greek temples, and the Voluspa of the north, all speak nearly the same things, on the main points of ancient history. Job 33:14 . God speaketh once, yea twice. This text is cited by David, in Psalms 62:11. God has spoken at sundry times, as... read more
