Wesley's Notes

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

2. This chapter is addressed also to the "friends" as the thirty-third chapter to Job alone.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

34:1-9 Elihu calls upon those present to decide with him upon Job's words. The plainest Christian, whose mind is enlightened, whose heart is sanctified by the Spirit of God, and who is versed in the Scriptures, can say how far matters, words, or actions, agree with true religion, better than any that lean to their own understandings. Job had spoken as if he meant wholly to justify himself. He that say, I have cleansed my hands in vain, does not only offend against God's children, Ps 73:13-15, but gratifies his enemies, and says as they say.


Job 34:1 Then Elihu continued and said,
Job 34:3 "For the ear tests words As the palate tastes food. (NASB ©1995)
