Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 33:9

9. I am clean without transgression, I am innocent, neither is there inquity in me .

Not simply and absolutely none, for he oft confesseth himself to be a sinner, as Chap. 9. 1, 2, &c. & 14. 4. but no such transgression or iniquity, as might give God just occasion to punish him so severely, as is implied in the next Verse, where he blameth God for finding occasions against him, implying that he had given him none by his sins. And thus far Elihu's cha[illegible: 1+ letters]ge was just and true, and herein it differs from the charge of Iob's three Friends, who oft accuse him, and that in words much like these, for asserting his own righteousness and innocency; although they did it, because they thought him a secret Sinner and an Hypocrite, whereas Elihu doth it upon other grounds, even because Iob's justification of himself was accompanied with reflections upon God as hath been said.
