Job 42:5 With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee.

Seeth thee. Some have thought that God now manifested himself from the cloud. (Eusebius, Dem. 1:4.; Titalman, etc.) But all now agree that he only enlightened his understanding, and made known his designs more clearly. (Calmet) --- Job now perceived that he had spoken too boldly, in saying, Hear, and I will speak, etc., ver. 4. The rest of this book is in prose. (Tirinus)
