Commentary

Commentary on Job 16:11

Theological / Devotional

Delivered me. All that Job had suffered at the hands of men — the gibes of his “comforters,” the insults and derision of base men, the desertion of many who might have been expected to help him — all these calamities Job attributes to God Himself. In so doing, he commits a common error of mankind — that of blaming God for those evil displays of human nature that are incited by Satan.
