John Trapp on Job 32:1

CHAP. XXXII. Verſe 1. So theſe three men ceaſed to anſwer Job]

THey were as quiet as men are on a Sabbath, ſo the word importeth: they had tired themſelves with talking, and now they were reſolved to reſt them, and the rather, becauſe they judged there was little good to be done by ought that they ſhould ſay; for Job was ſet.

Becauſe he was righteous in his own eyes] And ſo there was no more hope of a fool then of him. Pertinacious they held him and contentious, ſelf-conceited and opinionate; which indeed was a right character of themſelves, if they could have ſeen it. He was only conſtant to himſelfe, and to the truth; whereof he ſhewed himſelf a ſtout and reſolute Champion. Only, as every Pomgranate hath ſome rotten kernels in it; ſo Job had his frailties his outburſts, cauſed by extremitie of pain, and exceſs of paſſion; for the which theſe three did him wrong to give him up for deplored and deſperate.
