Concerning Elihu, his name, his fathers name, Barachel, his tribe or stock, a Buzite, I have spoken at the 2d verse, and shall not add any thing of it here; only take notice, That here Elihu begins his own preface; The former part of the Chapter contained the report of the divine historian concerning Elihu; but these are the words of Elihu himself; here he begins like an Orator to gain favour with and attention of his hearers, or to prepare the minds of his hearers to receive what he had to say; And upon this subject or piece of Rhetoric (making Prefaces) he spends the whole that remains of this Chapter. And Elihu, &c. answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old (that is it which he said) therefore I was afraid and durst not show mine opinion.
