The Hebrew is, ye men of heart, so the Margin hath it; As the heart is the principle of natural life▪ so the principles & powers ⟨p. 551⟩of the rational life are often ascribed to the heart. Job told his friends (Chap. 12.3.) I have a heart (we render, I have an understanding) as well as you; 1and in good Authors a hearty man signifies not only a man of courage, or a man of spirit, but a man of knowledge and understanding, a man more then ordinarily wise, a man of the highest Elevation for wisdom, is called a hearty man. Naturalists have ascribed the moving of several passions, to several internal parts of the body; laughter (say they) riseth from the spleen, anger from the Gall, love from the liver, but to the heart they give more then a passion, understanding, which is the noblest faculty of reason. Here Elihu calls upon men of heart, or of understanding to hearken to him.
