King James Translators' Notes

destroyed: Heb. crushed

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

25. Therefore-because He knows all things (Job 34:21). He knows their works, without a formal investigation (Job 34:24).

in the night-suddenly, unexpectedly (Job 34:20). Fitly in the night, as it was in it that the godless hid themselves (Job 34:22). Umbreit, less simply, for "overturneth," translates, "walketh"; that is, God is ever on the alert, discovering all wickedness.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

34:16-30 Elihu appeals directly to Job himself. Could he suppose that God was like those earthly princes, who hate right, who are unfit to rule, and prove the scourges of mankind? It is daring presumption to condemn God's proceedings, as Job had done by his discontents. Elihu suggests divers considerations to Job, to produce in him high thoughts of God, and so to persuade him to submit. Job had often wished to plead his cause before God. Elihu asks, To what purpose? All is well that God does, and will be found so. What can make those uneasy, whose souls dwell at ease in God? The smiles of all the world cannot quiet those on whom God frowns.


Job 34:11 "For He pays a man according to his work, And makes him find it according to his way.
Job 34:20 "In a moment they die, and at midnight People are shaken and pass away, And the mighty are taken away without a hand. (NASB ©1995)
