<p>He tries to show Job's rashness (<a onclick="return mV('Job',23,3);">Job 23:3</a>), by arguments borrowed from Eliphaz (<a onclick="return mV('Job',15,15);">Job 15:15</a>, with which.

<p id="Job25_2"><b>2.</b> Power and terror, that is, terror-inspiring power.
|

<br><br><b>peace in his high places</b>—implying that His power is such on high as to quell all opposition, not merely there, but on earth also. The Holy Ghost here shadowed forth Gospel truths (<a onclick="return mV('Col',1,20);">Col 1:20</a>; <a onclick="return mV('Eph',1,10);">Eph 1:10</a>).

Even the "stars," the most dazzling object to man's eye, and the angels, of which the stars are emblems (<a onclick="return mV('Job',4,18);">Job 4:18</a>; <a onclick="return mV('Rev',9,1);">Rev 9:1</a>), are imperfect in His sight.
