Context of Job 15:13

11“Is God’s comfort too little for you? Is his gentle word not enough? 12What has taken away your reason? What has weakened your vision, that you turn against God and say all these evil things? 14Can any mortal be pure? Can anyone born of a woman be just? 15Look, God does not even trust the angels. Even the heavens are not absolutely 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
