Job 11:18,19 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Thou shalt be secure, because there is hope Thy mind shall be quiet and free from terrors, because thou shalt have a firm and well-grounded confidence in God. Thou shalt dig Either to fix thy tents, which, after the manner of the Arabians, were removed from place to place; or, to plough thy ground, as he had done, Job 1:14, or to make a fence about thy dwelling Thou shalt take thy rest in safety Free from dangers and the fear of them; because of God's fatherly providence watching over thee, when thou canst not watch over thyself. And none shall make thee afraid Thou shalt be in perfect peace, and none shall disquiet thee; yea, many shall make suit unto thee Desiring thy favour and friendship, because of thy great power and riches, and eminent felicity.
