Job18:3

3. Wherefore are we counted as Beasts , and reputed vile in your sight ?

i. e. Ignorant, blockish and stupid men, Ch. 17. 4, 10.

Heb. polluted, or unclean, i. e. not fit to be conversed or discoursed with; or contemptible, as such things are.

Either 1. To your faces, or in your own hearing. Or 2. In thy sight or Judgment, O Iob; so he speaks of Iob in the plural number, as he did v. 2.

Marginal references: Heb. hidden. Lam. 4. 1.
