Job 21:6 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Even when I remember I am afraid, &c. The very remembrance of what is past fills me with dread and horror. As Job well knew that the account he was about to give of the prosperity of wicked men, however necessary to his argument, would have something shocking in it to the ears of those to whom it was addressed, the delicacy with which he thus introduces it is inimitable.
