Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

10. the soul-that is, the animal life. Man, reasons Job, is subjected to the same laws as the lower animals.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

12:6-11 Job appeals to facts. The most audacious robbers, oppressors, and impious wretches, often prosper. Yet this is not by fortune or chance; the Lord orders these things. Worldly prosperity is of small value in his sight: he has better things for his children. Job resolves all into the absolute proprietorship which God has in all the creatures. He demands from his friends liberty to judge of what they had said; he appeals to any fair judgment.


Job 27:3 For as long as life is in me, And the breath of God is in my nostrils,
Job 33:4 "The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
Acts 17:28 for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are His children.' (NASB ©1995)
