¹Secondly, Be at peace, may refer unto God, and so it is but the heightening of our acquaintance with him; for, first there must be an acquainting, and then a making up of peace; when friends fall out, they must first speak with one another, before the breach can be healed, if they do not treat, there can be no reconciliation. After treating comes peace; As peace is the fruit of the lips (Isa. 57.19.) when God treats with man by man, so when man treats with man, and when man treats with God. Acquaint now thy self with him, call for a treaty, and therein make thy peace, Be at peace with him, do not any longer continue thy unholy war with God. Eliphaz supposing Job as a man setting himself against God, had reason to bespeak him thus.
