Jamieson Fausset Brown Commentary - Job 5:22 - 5:22


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

famine thou shalt laugh - Not, in spite of destruction and famine, which is true (Hab 3:17, Hab 3:18), though not the truth meant by Eliphaz, but because those calamities shall not come upon thee. A different Hebrew word from that in Job 5:20; there, famine in general; here, the languid state of those wanting proper nutriment [Barnes].
