Job 10:4 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Of flesh, i.e. of a man, who is called flesh, as Genesis 6:13 Isaiah 40:6. Seest thou as man seeth? Man seeth outsides only, and judgeth by appearances, and is liable to many mistakes, and cannot search out secret faults without forcing men by cruel usage to accuse themselves: but thou needest none of these arts; thou seest my heart and mine uprightness, which my friends do not see, who therefore are more excusable in charging me with hypocrisy: but thou knowest all things, thou needest not examine me by tortures, as thou now dost, Job 10:6. For thou knowest that I am not wicked, as he saith, Job 10:7, and therefore do not thou deal with me as if I were wicked.

Job 10:4

4 Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?
