Adam Clarke's Commentary

Commentary on Job 21

Adam Clarke's verse-by-verse commentary on Job 21, from Commentary on the Bible. Read it alongside the full text of the chapter.

The king's heart is in the hand of God. We should practice mercy and justice. The lying tongue. The quarrelsome woman. The punishment of the wicked. The uncharitable. The private gift. The happiness of the righteous. The wicked a ransom for the righteous. The treasures of the wise. He who guards his tongue. Desire of the sluggard. The false witness. Salvation is of the Lord.
