JOB, Chap. 35. Vers. 9, 10, 11, 12, 13. 9. By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. 10. But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth Songs in the night? 11. Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven. 12. There they cry (but none giveth answer) because of the pride of evil men. 13. Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.

I Have dispatched the first of those great Objections which Elihu made afresh against Job in this Chapter, his speaking unduly of God. This context contains a second, with the answer to it.
The Connection is given by some thus; Whereas Elihu told Job at the 8th verse, That his wickedness might hurt a man like himself; He here proves, that the wickedness of man is very hurtful to men, so hurtful, that by reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: They cry out by reason of the arm of the mighty. Yet I shall not prosecute the words in that dependence, but as they are matter of a second complaint or charge brought by Elihu against Job. The charge is laid down in the 9th verse, and his answer is prosecuted in the 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th verses.
