I shall not here insist upon or discourse the way of Gods manifesting himself to the Ancients, by dreams & visions, but refer the Reader to what hath already been done upon the 4th Chapter at the 12th and 13th verses; where Eliphaz speaks almost in the same manner as Elihu here about visions; And, indeed there is a very great Consent between their two parts in this book, that of Eliphaz, and this of Elihu; They were both holy and prophetical men, both of them had the same design in speaking about dreams and visions, namely, to convince and humble Job; and both of them express themselves in terms of a very near Cognation. So that if the reader please to consult that place (Job 4.12, 13.) he will find these words farther cleared, as to the nature and several kinds of visions. And if he turn to what hath been done upon the 14th verse of the 7th Chapter, he may find the doctrine of dreams further opened.
