Job 4:3 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. Thou hast instructed many - Thou hast seen many in affliction and distress, and thou hast given them such advice as was suitable to their state, and effectual to their relief; and by this means thou hast strengthened the weak hands, and the feeble knees - the desponding have been encouraged, and the irresolute confirmed and excited to prompt and proper actions, by thy counsel and example.
