What does Job 29:1-10 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
Moreover Job continueda his parable, and said,
Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;
When his candleb shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;
When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;
When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;
When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!
The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.
The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.
The noblesc held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
