| Job 25:4 | Can man be justified, compared with God, or he that is born of a woman appear clean? | Clean. Job had used a similar expression, as well as Eliphaz, Job 4:17., and 14:4., and 15:15. The holy man did not assert that he was free from sin, but only that God did not punish him (Calmet) so dreadfully (Haydock) on that account, and that he has just reasons for afflicting his servants, if it were only to manifest his own power and glory. (Calmet) |
