Commentary on Job 42:12

Theological / Devotional

The Lord blessed. All three their friends had predicted that if Job would repent, he would be blessed (chapters 5:18-26; 8:20, 21; 11:13-19). Their predictions came true; but Job’s repentance was of a very different nature from what they envisioned; and it is certain they never anticipated that they themselves would be called upon to repent of their mistaken opinions and conduct.
