Job 42:1BSB·author unknown

Then Job replied to the LORD:

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

Good men come late to owning their faults, though it costs them. God spoke once and Job heard it twice: power belongs to Him alone. Now that truth has gripped him not as doctrine but as judgment upon his own folly in speaking irreverently before the throne.

Commenting on Job 42:1-6

John Gill Reformed Baptist

He had a theoretical knowledge of God's omnipotence before, but not the practical, experimental kind that bows the will and brings resignation. Now it works upon his heart: He not only can do all things, but He has the right to do what He pleases, and whatever He does is well and wise and righteous.
