Job 19:23-24

(23) В¶ Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book! (24) That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock forever!

I consider these words merely as a preface to what Job was about to say, and not what he had already uttered. And in this sense they serve by way of introduction, to one of the most illustrious instances of faith to be met with, concerning the LORD JESUS CHRIST in the Old Testament scripture. Pray, Reader, as they are thus introduced and in so important a manner, let you and I attend to them the more earnestly.
