Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 2. Who hath taken away my judgment ] Who has turned aside my cause, and has not permitted it to come to a hearing, where I might have justice done to me, but has abandoned me to the harsh and uncharitable judgment of my enemies? There appears to be a great want of reverence in these words of Job; he speaks with a degree of irritation, if not bitterness, which cannot be justified. No man should speak thus of his Maker.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - Job's friends now suffered him to speak, and he proceeded in a grav and useful manner. Job had confidence in the goodness both of his caus and of his God; and cheerfully committed his cause to him. But Job ha not due reverence when he spake of God as taking away his judgment, an vexing his soul. To resolve that our hearts shall not reproach us while we hold fast our integrity, baffles the designs of the evi spirit.
