Job 29:14 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

It clothed me: as a garment covers the whole body, and is worn continually all the day long; so I was constantly just in the whole course of all my administrations, public and private, and never put off this garment out of a partial respect to myself, or to the persons of other men, as the manner of many judges is. My judgment was as a robe and diadem; my judgments or decrees were so equal and righteous, that they never brought shame and reproach upon me, but always honour and great reputation.

Job 29:14

14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
