Job 6:22,23 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Did I say Or, is it because I said; Bring unto me? Give me something for my support or relief? Is this, or what else is the reason why you are afraid of me, or alienated from me? Did either my former covetousness, or my present necessity, make me troublesome or chargeable to you? or, Give a reward for me of your substance Or, Give a gift for my use or need? Did I send for you to come and visit me for this end? Nay, did you not come of your own accord? Why then are you so unmerciful to me? You might at least have given me comfortable words, when I expected nothing else from you. Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? By power and the force of your arms, as Abraham delivered Lot; or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty? Namely, by price or ransom.
