For Job hath said, I am righteous - see Job 13:18, “I know that I shall be justified;” compare Job 23:10-11, where he says, if he was tried he would come forth as gold. Elihu may have also referred to the general course of remark which he had pursued as vindicating himself. And God hath taken away my judgment - This sentiment is found in Job 27:2; see the notes at that place. return to 'Top of Page'
