CHAPTER 25

THIRD
SERIES.

. BILDAD'S
REPLY.
He tries to show Job's rashness
([Job 23:3](../../../kjv/job/23/3)), by arguments
borrowed from Eliphaz ([Job 15:15](../../../kjv/job/15/15);
[Job 11:17](../../../kjv/job/11/17).

**2.** Power and terror, that is,
terror-inspiring power.
**peace in his high
places**—implying that His power is such on high as to quell all
opposition, not merely there, but on earth also. The Holy Ghost here
shadowed forth Gospel truths ([Colossians 1:20](../../../kjv/colossians/1/20);
[Ephesians 1:10](../../../kjv/ephesians/1/10)).

**3. armies**—angels and stars
([Isaiah 40:26](../../../kjv/isaiah/40/26); [Jeremiah 33:22](../../../kjv/jeremiah/33/22);
[Genesis 15:5](../../../kjv/genesis/15/5); "countless,"
[Daniel 7:10](../../../kjv/daniel/7/10)).
**his light**— ([Daniel 7:10](../../../kjv/daniel/7/10)).

**4.** ([Job 4:17](../../../kjv/job/4/17);
[Job 4:18](../../../kjv/job/4/18); [Job 14:4](../../../kjv/job/14/4);
[Job 15:14](../../../kjv/job/15/14)).

**5.** "Look up even unto the
moon" ([Job 15:15](../../../kjv/job/15/15)).
"Stars" here answer to "saints" (angels) there;
"the moon" here to "the heavens" there. Even the
"stars," the most dazzling object to man's eye, and the
angels, of which the stars are emblems ([Job 4:18](../../../kjv/job/4/18);
[Revelation 9:1](../../../kjv/revelation/9/1)), are imperfect in His
sight. Theirs is the light and purity but of creatures; His of the
Creator.

**6.** ([Job 4:19-21](../../../kjv/job/4/19-21);
[Job 15:16](../../../kjv/job/15/16)).
**worm . . . worm**—Two
distinct *Hebrew* words. The first, a worm bred in putridity;
alluding to man's *corruption.* The second a crawling worm;
implying that man is *weak and grovelling.*
