Job 34:2-4 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Hear my words O ye wise men Who are here present: do you judge whether what I have said, and have still further to say, be not reasonable and true. For the ear trieth words Man's mind judgeth of the truth and propriety of things spoken and heard; as the mouth tasteth meat And distinguishes what is sweet and palatable from what is otherwise. The ear is put for the mind, to which things are conveyed by it. Let us choose to us judgment Let us agree to examine the business, that we may be able to pronounce a righteous judgment. Let us not contend for victory, but for truth and justice. Let us know among ourselves what is good Let us show one another who hath the best cause.

Job 34:2-4

2 Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

3 For the ear trieth words, as the moutha tasteth meat.

4 Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
