Secondly, There is a holding of our peace at the word of God, or at what God speaketh. Thus 'tis when not only the tongue but the heart is silent, and every thought is brought into subjection or captivity to the obedience of Christ. The heart of man often speaks much, and is very clamorous, when he saith nothing with his tongue. That's to hold our peace indeed, when the heart is quiet, let God say or do what he will. 'Tis not more our duty to resist the Devil, that is, all his hellish whisperings and temptations to the doing of evil, then 'tis to submit to God in all his speakings and dispensations. Elihu speaking in the name of the Lord, faithfully adviseth Job in this sense, to hold his peace.
