Commentary on Job 19:28

Theological / Devotional

Ye should say. Job threatens his friends. In effect he says: “If, after what I have said, you continue bitter against me, and take counsel as to the best way of persecuting me, still assuming that I am at fault — be ye afraid.” Job’s friends have pronounced repeated judgments on him. Now, with increased confidence, Job in turn threatens them with divine wrath and judgment.
