1The scope of Elihu in the former part of the verse was to demonstrate that God is no hater of right, or righteousness, for he is not only A Governor, but The Governor, all the world over, or over all the world, and it were a most absurd thing, to think that he should be the Governor of the world, and yet be a hater ⟨p. 615⟩of right; can it be imagined that he who ruleth all men, should wrong any man? Now seeing God who ruleth all is always most righteous, wilt thou (O Job) condemn him (saith Elihu) that is most just? God our governor is so far from hating, that he is ever promoting justice, he that is so, is most just, and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?
