NET © Notes |
1 tn The verbal idea is intensified with the infinitive absolute. This is the same verb used in v. 3; here it would have the sense of “rebuke, convict.” sn Peake’s observation is worth noting, namely, that as Job attacks the unrighteousness of God boldly he nonetheless has confidence in God’s righteousness that would not allow liars to defend him. 2 sn The use of the word “in secret” or “secretly” suggests that what they do is a guilty action (31:27a). |
