JOB, CHAP. 23. Vers. 14, 15, 16, 17. For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. Therefore I am troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.
JOB, CHAP. 23. Vers. 14, 15, 16, 17. For he performeth the thing that is appoynted for mee: and many such things are with him. Therefore I am troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth mee: Because I was not cut off before the darknesse, neither hath he covered the darknesse from my face.
IN the former verse Job exalteth God, first, in his unchangeableness, He is in one mind, who can turn him? Secondly, in his Almightiness, What his soul desireth, even that he doth. In the 14th ver. he speaks of God in reference to his personal experience, and brings down the general proposition to his own particular case. As if he had said; I indeed have found, that what his soul desireth, even that he doth, mine own sad experience proves and bears witness to this truth, my present state makes the Comment of this text; for he performeth the thing that is appointed for me.
