JOB. Chap. 33. Vers. 15, 16, 17, 18. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed: Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction. That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

Elihu having said in the former verse, that, God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not; proceeds to give instance of those several ways by which God speaketh to man. His first Instance is given (v. 15.) where he brings in God speaking to man in dreams and visions. And as he shows us God speaking in dreams and visions, so he sets down his aims or ends in doing so, and they are three-fold.
