Footnotes

  1. 21 The word תַּנְחֻמוֹת (tankhumot) occurs here and only in Job 21:34. The words of comfort and consolation that they have been offering to Job are here said to be “of God.” But Job will call them miserable comforters (16:2).
  2. 22 The formula “is it too little for you” or “is it too slight a matter for you” is also found in Isa 7:13 (see §133.c).
  3. 23 The word “spoken” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation.
