This verse holds out two things. First, the sovereignty; Secondly, the integrity of God. God is supreme in power, and he is righteous in the use of his power, and therefore, O Job, thou hast much forgotten both thy self and him, in making so many complaints about thy condition, which is indeed to enjoin God his way, or prescribe to him how he shall govern the world. And seeing no man hath enjoined God his way, who can question him about it, what way soever he is pleased to take, either with whole Nations, or with any of the sons of men.

Who hath enjoined him his way, or, visited him?
Who hath enjoyned him his way, or, visited him?
No man hath, no man can, enjoin him his way. God hath no visitors over him. Mr. Broughton renders, Who gave him charge over his ways. Like that, Chap. 34.13.
