Job 36:4 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

For truly my words [shall] not [be] false: he that is perfect in knowledge [is] with thee.

Ver. 4. For truly my words shall not be false] I shall deal truly and plainly with thee; my discourse shall be simple and solid, having no better ornament but that of truth; which is like our first parents, most beautiful when naked: it was sin covered them, it is treachery hides this. Aperta veritas clausos etiam oculos ferit, saith one.

He that is perfect in knowledge is with thee] Integer sententiis (Vatab.); meaning himself, who fully understood the business between them, and would faithfully deliver it. There are that hold God to be hereby meant. A pious sense, but not so proper.

Job 36:4

4 For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
