Job 14:3 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?

Open ... eyes upon - not in graciousness; but, "Dost thou sharply fix thine eyes upon?" (Note, Job 7:19-20; also 1:8.) Is one so frail as man worthy of such constant watching on the part of God? (Zechariah 12:4, "I will open mine eyes upon Judah.")

Me - so frail.

Thee - so Almighty.

Job 14:3
