Commentary

Commentary on Job 1:11

Theological / Devotional

But. Heb. ’ulam. A strong adversative to emphasize the contrast between Job’s present felicity and his predicted attitude under adversity. The Hebrew may be translated emphatically, “surely he will curse thee.” See on v. 5 regarding “curse” as a translation of barak.
