Job 15:9 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

What knowest thou, that we know not? [what] understandest thou, which [is] not in us?

Ver. 9. What knowest thou, that we know not?] Here Eliphaz inveigheth against Job's pride, sed maiori cam fastu, but with greater pride, else what meaneth this arrogant comparison? Did not a deceived heart turn him aside, as the prophet speaketh in another case? and might it not be said of him, as it was once of Antony, That he hated a tyrant, but not tyranny. See Trapp on " Job 12:3 " See Trapp on " Job 13:2 "

Job 15:9
