Vers. 16. Which were cut down out of time, and whose foundation was overflown with a flood.
Vers. 16. Which were cut downe out of time, and whose foundation was overflowne with a flood.
At this verse the Original hath a very conspicuous note of distinction. The Jews are very exact in observing the letters and the verses of every book in the Bible, and between these two verses is the middle of the book:1 there being exactly the same number of verses behind as we have had before in this whole book of Job (taking the 16th verse Inclusively) So that now we are half the book over according to the number of verses. The whole containing 1070. The ⟨p. 142⟩former part hath had 535. and as many remain for the latter part. This I touch only by the way.
