And what his soul desireth, even that he doth.
And what his soule desireth, even that he doth.
God is not like man, consisting of a soul and body; Man is the result of soul and body united together. A soul is not a man, nor is a body a man; man is a third thing rising out of both; But God is a spirit. 1And when Job saith, What his soul desireth; The meaning is, what himself desireth. The soul of a man, is indeed the man, because the choicest part of man; though man hath another part, namely, a body, yet the soul is he. The soul of man, being his best part, is often put for the whole man. But the soul of God is not put here for God, because it is the best part of Him; His soul is himself.
