Matthew Poole and continuators on Job 6:30

30. Is there iniquity in my tongue ? cannot my tast discern perverse things ?

Consider again, and more throughly examine if there be any untruth or iniquity in what I have already said, or shall further speak to you.

i. e. My judgment which discerns and judgeth of words and actions, as the tast or palate doth of meats.

i. e. False opinions or sinful expressions. I am not so bereft of common understanding, as not to be able to distinguish between good and evil. And therefore if I have uttered, or should utter any perverse words, I should apprehend them to be so as well as you do.

Marginal references: Heb. my palate.
