Job 12:4 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

I am as one mocked of his neighbour. — The laughing-stock of his companion — he who called on God, and He answered him. This is either the character Job claims for himself, or it is the supposed taunt of his friends — the righteous and the perfect a laughing-stock, or, the righteous and the perfect might be a laughing-stock. Ridicule is no test of truth or of merit.

Job 12:4

4 I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn.
