Commentary on Job 16:19

Theological / Devotional

My witness. This verse presents evidence of a faint glimmer of hope in the dark night of despair. Although Job is convinced that God is afflicting him, he still maintains at least a measure of confidence in Him.

My record. Literally, “my witness,” that is, “one who witnesses.” The LXX here reads, “my advocate is on high.”
