Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Job 36:22

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

22-25. God is not to be impiously arraigned, but to be praised for His might, shown in His works. exalteth —rather, doeth lofty things, shows His exalted power [UMBREIT] ( Psalms 21:13 ). teacheth — ( Psalms 21:13- : , c.). The connection is, returning to Psalms 21:13- : , God's "might" is shown in His "wisdom" He alone can teach; yet, because He, as a sovereign, explains not all His dealings, forsooth Job must presume to teach Him ( Isaiah 40:13 ; Isaiah 40:14 ; Romans 11:34 ; 1 Corinthians 2:16 ). So the transition to Job 36:23 is natural. UMBREIT with the Septuagint translates, "Who is Lord, " wrongly, as this meaning belongs to later Hebrew. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-23" class="com-number"
