This verse contains the second request which Elihu made to Jobs friends; The sum of it is, that they might proceed judiciously and fairly in the cause before them. As if he had said, Seeing it is the office of the ear to try words, as the mouth tasteth meat; let us see what we can do with our ears towards the determination of this matter. Job hath often wished to find one with whom he might debate and try this cause in judgment; let us give him his wish, and having throughly weighed the matter and merits of his cause, let us see what justice will award him. Let us choose to our selves judgment, &c.

Let us choose.
Let us chuse.
To elect or choose is the work of the will. And to choose what is good, what is right, is a gracious work of a renewed will; as Gods Election of us from Eternity, so our Election of God and the things of God at any time, is a very gracious work.
