This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Job_40:6 Then answered the LORD unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Ver. 6. Then answered the Lord unto Job out of a whirlwind] As before, Job_38:1, notwithstanding Job’s submission. See the reason on Job_40:4. God took his outbursts against him so very ill, that he is not easily pacified; but the better to abase Job, and quite to break the neck of his pride, he answereth him again angrily, not by a soft and still voice, as be dealt by Elijah, but out of the whirlwind, though with some abatement of terror, as Rainban conceiveth from the leaving out here the notificative article set before segnarah, the whirlwind, in Job_38:1. Peter was not overly forward to comfort those that were pricked at heart with sense of sin and fear of wrath; but presseth them yet further to repent, Act_2:38. Men are apt to slight and slubber over the work, doing it to the halves; and must therefore be held hard to it, lest it should not be done to purpose.
