The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
The Spirit of God hath made me - as He did thee: latter clause of Job 33:6 (Genesis 2:7). Therefore thou needest not fear me as thou wouldest God (Job 33:7; Job 9:34). On the other hand, 'the breath of the Almighty hath inspired me' (as Job 32:8); not, as the English version, "given me life:" therefore "I am, according to thy wish (Job 9:32-33), in God's stead" to thee; a "daysman," umpire, or mediator between God and thee. So Elihu was designed by the Holy Spirit to be a type of Jesus Christ (Job 33:23-26).
