SEV Biblia, Chapter 33:15
Por sueño de visión nocturna, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, cuando se adormecen sobre el lecho;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 33:15
Verse 15. I. In a DREAM-when deep sleep falleth upon men ] Many, by such means, have had the most salutary warnings; and to decry all such, because there are many vain dreams, would be nearly as much wisdom as to deny the Bible, because there are many foolish books, the authors of which supposed they were under a Divine influence while composing them. II. In a VISION of the night-in slumberings upon the bed ] Visions or images presented in the imagination during slumber, when men are betwixt sleeping and waking, or when, awake and in bed, they are wrapt up in deep contemplation, the darkness of the night having shut out all objects from their sight, so that the mind is not diverted by images of earthly things impressed on the senses. Many warnings in this way have come from God; and the impression they made, and the good effect they produced, were the proofs of their Divine origin. To deny this would be to call into doubt the testimony of the best, wisest, and holiest men in all ages of the Church. Of one of these visions we have a remarkable account in this book, chap. iv. 12-21. And this vision seems to have taken place in the night season, when Eliphaz awoke from a deep sleep. There is this difference between the accidents of the dream and the vision: the former takes place when deep sleep falleth upon men; the latter, in the night, in or after slumberings upon the bed.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-18 - God speaks to us by conscience, by providences, and by ministers; of all these Elihu discourses. There was not then, that we know of, an Divine revelation in writing, though now it is our principal guide When God designs men's good, by the convictions and dictates of their own consciences, he opens the heart, as Lydia's, and opens the ears, s that conviction finds or forces its way in. The end and design of thes admonitions are to keep men from sin, particularly the sin of pride While sinners are pursuing evil purposes, and indulging their pride their souls are hastening to destruction. That which turns men from sin, saves them from hell. What a mercy it is to be under the restraints of an awakened conscience!
