(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
a wise man - which Job claims to be.
vain knowledge - Hebrew, “windy knowledge”; literally, “of wind” (Job 8:2). In Ecc 1:14, Hebrew, “to catch wind,” expresses to strive for what is vain.
east wind - stronger than the previous “wind,” for in that region the east wind is the most destructive of winds (Isa 27:8). Thus here, - empty violence.
belly - the inward parts, the breast (Pro 18:8).
