Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

6. compassed . net-alluding to Bildad's words (Job 18:8). Know, that it is not that I as a wicked man have been caught in my "own net"; it is God who has compassed me in His-why, I know not.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

19:1-7 Job's friends blamed him as a wicked man, because he was so afflicted; here he describes their unkindness, showing that what they condemned was capable of excuse. Harsh language from friends, greatly adds to the weight of afflictions: yet it is best not to lay it to heart, lest we harbour resentment. Rather let us look to Him who endured the contradiction of sinners against himself, and was treated with far more cruelty than Job was, or we can be.


Job 16:11 "God hands me over to ruffians And tosses me into the hands of the wicked.
Job 18:8 "For he is thrown into the net by his own feet, And he steps on the webbing.
Job 27:2 "As God lives, who has taken away my right, And the Almighty, who has embittered my soul,
Psalm 66:11 You brought us into the net; You laid an oppressive burden upon our loins.
Lamentations 1:13 "From on high He sent fire into my bones, And it prevailed over them. He has spread a net for my feet; He has turned me back; He has made me desolate, Faint all day long. (NASB ©1995)
