Job 9:16 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice. If I had called, and he had answered - I could scarcely suppose, such is his majesty and such his holiness, that he could condescend to notice a being so mean, and in every respect so infinitely beneath his notice. These sentiments sufficiently confuted that slander of his friends, who said he was presumptuous, had not becoming notions of the majesty of God, and used blasphemous expressions against his sovereign authority.
