This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job_19:6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
Ver. 6. Know that God hath overthrown me] Do not you therefore add affliction to the afflicted, which is so odious a thing to God, Psa_41:2; Psa_69:26; but regard the greatness of mine evils, which draw these complaints from me that seem so immoderate to you. See Job_6:2 (Diodati).
And hath compassed me with his net] Hath encompassed me round with affliction, that I can get out no way. A hunting term, Job_10:16 Lam_1:13 Eze_12:13 Hos_7:12. Bildad had made much mention of nets and gins, wherein God ensnareth and ensnarleth the wicked, Job_18:8-9. Job granteth that God’s net had encompassed him; but withal denieth himself to be wicked, or that his friends should therefore reproach him, but rather pity him.
