John Trapp on Job 13:25

Verſe 25.Indignum eſt majestate tua, ut miſellum homuncionem &c. Jun. Wilt thou break a leafe driven to and fro &c?] q. d. egregiam verò laudem; Thinkeſt thou to get any honour by encountring and overturning me, who was at my beſt but as a leafe, or as ſtubble, weak, and worthleſſe; and am now, by reaſon of mine afflictions, but as a leaf blown off, and whirled up and down; or as ſtubble fully dried, which is ſoon ſcattered by the wind, Pſalm 1.4. or quickly burnt by the fire, Nah. 1.10. David reaſoneth in this manner with Saul, 1 Sam. 24.14. After whom is the King of Iſrael come forth? after whom doſt thou purſue?Tibul. After a dead dog? after a flea? A great purchaſe ſurely! a great victory!

—An gloria tanta eſt Inſidias homini ſuppoſuiſſe Deum?

The truth is, God doth not afflict any man (whom he knowes to be a thing of nothing) on purpoſe to try his ſtrength, or to ſhew his power; but either to exerciſe his juſtice upon the wicked, or to prove the faith of his people, and to promote their ſalvation.
