How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

3. plentifully . the thing as it is-rather, "abundantly-wisdom." Bildad had made great pretensions to abundant wisdom. How has he shown it?

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

26:1-4 Job derided Bildad's answer; his words were a mixture of peevishness and self-preference. Bildad ought to have laid before Job the consolations, rather than the terrors of the Almighty. Christ knows how to speak what is proper for the weary, Isa 50:4; and his ministers should not grieve those whom God would not have made sad. We are often disappointed in our expectations from our friends who should comfort us; but the Comforter, the Holy Ghost, never mistakes, nor fails of his end.


Job 26:2 "What a help you are to the weak! How you have saved the arm without strength!
Job 26:4 "To whom have you uttered words? And whose spirit was expressed through you? (NASB ©1995)
