Job 34:17 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just? Shall - he that hateth right govern? - Or, Shall he who hateth judgment, lie under obligation? It is preposterous to suppose that he who lives by no rule, should impose rules upon others. God, who is the fountain of all justice and righteousness, binds man by his laws; and wilt thou, therefore, pretend to condemn him who is the sum of righteousness?

Job 34:17

17 Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?
