Matthew Henry · Verses 1–7
Job had desired a judge to decide his appeal. Elihu was one according to his wish, a man like himself. If we would rightly convince men, it must be by reason, not by terror; by fair argument, not by a heavy hand.
Job 33:5
If you can, answer me. Set your words in order before me, and stand up.
