SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:31
aún me hundirás en el hoyo; y mis propios vestidos me abominarán.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 9:31
Verse 31. And mine own clothes shall abhor me. ] Such is thine infinite purity, when put in opposition to the purity of man, that it will bear no comparison. Searched and tried by the eye of God, I should be found as a leper, so that my own clothes would dread to touch me, for fear of being infected by my corruption. This is a strong and bold figure; and is derived from the corrupted state of his body, which his clothes dreaded to touch, because of the contagious nature of his disorder.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 25-35 - What little need have we of pastimes, and what great need to redee time, when it runs on so fast towards eternity! How vain the enjoyment of time, which we may quite lose while yet time continues! The remembrance of having done our duty will be pleasing afterwards; s will not the remembrance of having got worldly wealth, when it is all lost and gone. Job's complaint of God, as one that could not be appeased and would not relent, was the language of his corruption There is a Mediator, a Daysman, or Umpire, for us, even God's ow beloved Son, who has purchased peace for us with the blood of his cross, who is able to save to the uttermost all who come unto God through him. If we trust in his name, our sins will be buried in the depths of the sea, we shall be washed from all our filthiness, and mad whiter than snow, so that none can lay any thing to our charge. We shall be clothed with the robes of righteousness and salvation, adorne with the graces of the Holy Spirit, and presented faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy. May we learn the differenc between justifying ourselves, and being thus justified by God himself Let the tempest-tossed soul consider Job, and notice that others have passed this dreadful gulf; and though they found it hard to believ that God would hear or deliver them, yet he rebuked the storm, an brought them to the desired haven. Resist the devil; give not place to hard thoughts of God, or desperate conclusions about thyself. Come to Him who invites the weary and heavy laden; who promises in nowise to cast them out __________________________________________________________________
