King James Translators' Notes

the spirit...: that is, the breath which God gave him

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

3. Implying Job's knowledge of the fact that the living soul was breathed into man by God (Ge 2:7). "All the while." But Maurer, "As yet all my breath is in me" (notwithstanding my trials): the reason why I can speak so boldly.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

27:1-6 Job's friends now suffered him to speak, and he proceeded in a grave and useful manner. Job had confidence in the goodness both of his cause and of his God; and cheerfully committed his cause to him. But Job had not due reverence when he spake of God as taking away his judgment, and vexing his soul. To resolve that our hearts shall not reproach us, while we hold fast our integrity, baffles the designs of the evil spirit.


Job 32:8 "But it is a spirit in man, And the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding.
Job 33:4 "The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life. (NASB ©1995)
