Context of Job 15:13

11Are the consolations of God too small for you, Even the word spoken gently with you? 12Why does your heart carry you away? And why do your eyes flash, That you should turn your spirit against God And allow such words to go out of your mouth? 14What is man, that he should be pure, Or he who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous? 15Behold, He puts no trust in His holy ones, And the heavens are not pure in His sight;

Commentaries on Job 15:13

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 13That thou turnest thy spirit against God - The ideas here seem to be taken from an archer, who turns his eye and his spirit - his desire - against the object which he wishes to hit; and then lets loose his arrow that it may attain the mark.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 13That thou turnest thy spirit - That your mind is turned against God instead of acquiescing in his dealings. The views of Job he traces to pride and to overweening self-confidence, and perhaps not improperly.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1313. That is, frettest against God and lettest fall rash words.Read the comment
