Job9:11
11. Lo, he goeth by me , and I see him not : he passeth on also , but I perceive him not.
i. e. He worketh by his Providence in waies of Mercy or Judgment.
Or besides, or before me, in my presence.
I see the Effects, but I cannot understand the Causes or Grounds of his Actions, for they are incomprehensible by me, or by any other men▪ for though he speaks onely in his own person, yet he means it of all men; that such is the weakness of mens Understandings, that they cannot search out God's Counsels and ways: See Acts 17. 27. Rom. 11. 33.
He goeth from place to place, from one action to another: He speaks of God after the manner of men.
