John Trapp on Job 6:1

CHAP. VI Verſe 1. But Job anſwered and ſaid]

ELiphaz thought he had ſilenced him, and ſet him down with ſo much reaſon, that he ſhould have had nothing to reply, yet Job deſirous to diſaſperſe himſelf, and to clear-up his reputation, anſwered and ſaid. For indeed Negligere quid de ſe quiſque ſentiat, non ſolum arragantis eſt, ſed & diſſoluti, ſaith one; that is, altogether to neglect what others think or ſpeak of a mans ſelf, and not to make apology, is the part not only of a proud, but of a diſſolute perſon [illegible: 1 letter] ſilence ſometimes argueth guiltineſſe, or at leaſt it ſtrengtheneth ſuſpition.
