Job 27:11

Context

27:11 I will teach you 3  about the power 4  of God;

What is on the Almighty’s mind 5  I will not conceal.

1 sn As J. E. Hartley (Job [NICOT], 216) observes, in this section Job argues that respected tradition “must not be accepted uncritically.”

2 tn The singular verb is used here with the plural collective subject (see GKC 464 §145.k).

3 tn The object suffix is in the plural, which gives some support to the idea Job is speaking to them.

4 tn Heb “the hand of.”

5 tn Heb “[what is] with Shaddai.”
