Bildad’s reproof: Job’s words said to be as wind: God just in all his ways, and in his dealings towards Job’s children: if he would pray to God, and was indeed pure and upright, God would arise for him, Job_8:1-7. For this he appealeth to the history of ancient times, which declare the bad end of the hypocrite, Job_8:8-19, and the hope and joy of the upright, Job_8:20-22.
