Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 35:15

15. But now because it is not so , he hath visited in his anger , yet he knoweth it not in great extremity .

i. e. Because Iob doth not acknowledge God's justice and his own sins, and wait upon God in his way for Mercy, according to the last advice given to him, v. 14.

To wit, God, to whom this great work of visiting is ascribed every where in Scripture.

i. e. Hath laid grievous afflictions upon him; all which is too little to bring Job to compliance with God.

Job is not sufficiently sensible of it, so as to be humbled under God's hand.

Or, though (which Particle is sometimes understood▪ of which examples have been before) in great extremity, or ab[illegible: 1+ letters]dance, to wit, of afflictions. Though Job hath hitherto been and still is exercised with very sore Calamities, yet they have not brought Job to the knowledge of God and of himself. But this Verse is and may be rendred thus; A[illegible: 1+ letters]d now know that his (i. e. God's) ang[illegible: 1+ letters]r hath visited thee little or nothing, (to wit, in comparison of what thou hast deserved and mightest reasonably expect) neither hath [illegible: 1 word] known (i. e. judged or punished, as this word is used, Prov. 10. 9. and elsewhere) thee in or according to (as the prefix [illegible: 1 word] is sometimes used) [illegible: 1 word] great ab[illegible: 1+ letters]dance, to wit, of thy sins. And therefore thy complaints against God are very unrighteous and un[illegible: 1+ letters]easonable.
