Job 10:13<\/span> seq<\/em>., Job 13:24<\/span>, Job 19:11<\/span>, Job 30:21<\/span>.<\/p>\n he findeth occasions<\/em> ] lit. enmities<\/em>, i. e. grounds of enmity or hostility; he “findeth” is almost equivalent to He “invents.” Coverdale quaintly, “he hath pyked a quarell agaynst me.”<\/p>\n Behold, he findeth occasions against me – <\/B>That is, God. This is not exactly the language of Job, though much that he had said had seemed to imply this. The idea is, that God sought opportunity to oppose him; that he was desirous to find in him some ground or reason for punishing him; that he wished to be hostile to him, and was narrowly on the watch to find an opportunity which would justify his bringing calamity upon him. The word rendered occasions – <\/span> t<\/I>e<\/I><\/SUP>nu’ah<\/I>, is from <\/span> nu’<\/I>, in the Hiphil, <\/span> haniy’<\/I> – to refuse, decline; to hinder, restrain, Num 30:6<\/span>, Num 30:9<\/span>,Num 30:12<\/span>; and hence, the noun means, a holding back, a withdrawal, an alienation; and hence, the idea is, that God sought to be alienated from Job. The Vulgate renders it, He seeks complaints (querales<\/I>) against me. The Septuagint, <\/SPAN><\/span> mempsin<\/I> – accusation. Umbreit, Feindshaft, enmity. So Gesenius and Noyes. He counteth me for his enemy. This is language which Job had used; see Job 19:11<\/span>.<\/P><\/p>\n He picketh quarrels with me, and watcheth over<\/I> and searcheth after<\/I> all my errors and frailties, as Job said, Job 10:6<\/span>; 14:16<\/span>,17<\/span>; severely marking what is amiss in me, that thence he may take occasion to punish me worse than mine iniquities deserve. Though I have endeavoured to be his friend and faithful servant all my days, yet he treats me like an enemy. This Job said Job 13:24<\/span>; 19:11<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n 10. occasions<\/B>for hostility;literally, “enmities” (Job 13:24<\/span>;Job 16:9<\/span>; Job 19:11<\/span>;Job 30:21<\/span>).<\/P><\/p>\n Behold, he findeth occasions against me<\/strong>,…. That is, sought in order to find them; so Job in some places suggests, that God inquired after his sins, and sought diligently after them, that he might have something to bring against him; and because he could not find great sins, gross enormities, he sought after lesser sins; so some render the word, “staggerings”, “totterings” h; frailties, failings, and infirmities; and because he could find none of late of a very heinous nature, he went back as far as the sins of his youth; see<\/p>\n Job 10:6<\/span>; and this in order to pick a quarrel with him; and so Mr. Broughton renders the words, “lo, he picketh quarrels against me”; or that he might have just reason to depart from him, or to break from him, or to break off friendship with him, or to break him to pieces in his estate, family, and health; all which senses some observe the words will bear: but it would be needless for God to seek in order to find occasions against men; there is enough ready at hand, the sins that are about them; and to represent the Lord as dealing thus with good men is to represent him as acting contrary to the declarations and methods of his grace; yea, as doing what wicked men do to good men, as the enemies of David, Daniel, and Jeremiah, did to them; nay, even as Satan himself does, who goes about and seeks for, and picks up accusations against the saints; this must be owned to be a very irreverent and unbecoming expression of Job’s, and for which he deserved to be sharply rebuked, as well as for some following ones, and for which he afterwards was thoroughly humbled:<\/p>\n he counteth me for his enemy<\/strong>; this he had often said, but very wrongly; [See comments on Job 13:24]<\/span>, and<\/p>\n [See comments on Job 16:9]<\/span>, and<\/p>\n [See comments on Job 19:11]<\/span>.<\/p>\n h “vacillationes”, Cocceius; “aut mutationes”, Michaelis.<\/p>\n (10) Behold, he findeth occasions against me.<\/strong>See Job. 13:24<\/span>; Job. 13:26-27<\/span>; Job. 19:11<\/span>.<\/p>\n 10<\/strong>. <\/strong> Occasions <\/strong> Rather, enmities, hostilities.<\/p>\n Job 33:10<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>Behold he findeth occasions against me<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> The first branch of this passage, Behold he findeth occasions against me; <\/em>or, as Heath and others render it, He inventeth cruelties against me, <\/em>is not to be found in Job’s speeches; and as for the other branch, which occurs, chap. Job 13:24<\/span> we have there observed, that though there may be something faulty in the expostulation; yet it is much alleviated by the expressions of humility which precede and follow it. See the note on that place. <\/p>\n Job 33:10 Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,<\/p>\n Ver. 10. Behold, he findeth occasions against me<\/strong> ] Or, breaches; he picks quarrels with me, and would fain find out somewhat in my carriage wherefore to break friendship with me, and to break me in pieces. But did Job ever say in this sort? Not expressly so; but by consequence, and to the same purpose, Job 9:17<\/span> ; Job 13:24<\/span> ; Job 14:17<\/span> ; Job 16:9<\/span> ; Job 19:11<\/span> . <\/p>\n <\/p>\n He counteth me for his enemy<\/strong> ] This indeed he had said, and somewhat more, Job 13:24<\/span> ; Job 16:9<\/span> ; Job 30:21<\/span> , as if God, of his mere pleasure, had made cruel wars upon him, and exercised all kind of hostility against him, as a vanquished enemy.
