JOB. Chap. 32. Vers. 4, 5, 6, 7. Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken: because they were elder then he. When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled. And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old, wherefore I was afraid, and durst not show you mine opinion. I said Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.

This context assigns the reason, First, why Elihu forbore so long to speak, namely, because he was young, that reason you have in the 4th verse, as also in the 6th and 7th. Secondly, why he began at last to speak, namely, because his elders, those grave ancient men would or could speak no more. This he lays down in the 5th verse, When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then &c.
