L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Job 42:1-17

JOBS REPENTANCE AND PRAYER (vv.1-9) Who would not be totally subdued after hearing God speak such things as He did to Job? What a change took place in Job's attitude and in his words! He was humbled to the dust, as he says, "I know You can do everything, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You. You asked, Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know" (vv.2-3). He now... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Job 42:7-17

The Exaltation and Death of Job Job 42:7-17 How God rebukes the wisdom of the wise! How God humiliates the very men who supposed that they were defending and glorifying him! How even Christian ministers may misrepresent God! We may be talking about religion without being religious. These are the thoughts which are excited by the circumstance that when all the comforters had exhausted their accusatory eloquence they had neither comforted Job nor pleased God. It is right The tone that is to... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Job 42:7

(7) ¶ And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. Observe how this is worded. The LORD doth not give sentence against those three men, until that he had first spoken to his servant Job: but, after that the LORD had brought Job into the state the LORD had intended, then, and not before, he... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Job 42:13-15

(13) He had also seven sons and three daughters. (14) And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. (15) And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. It is remarkable that Job should have a second family of children, and the same in number and in sex as he had before. But this was GOD'S grace and love. The names of his daughters are... read more
