SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:17

El hace andar a los consejeros desnudos de consejo, y hace enloquecer a los jueces.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 12:17

Verse 17. He leadeth
counsellors away spoiled ] The events of war are also in his hand. It is he who gives victory; through him even the counsellors-the great men and chief men, are often led into captivity, and found among the spoils.

And maketh the judges fools. ] He infatuates the judges. Does this refer to the foolish conduct of some of the Israelitish judges, such as Samson?


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-25 - This is a noble discourse of Job concerning the wisdom, power, an sovereignty of God, in ordering all the affairs of the children of men according to the counsel of His own will, which none can resist. I were well if wise and good men, who differ about lesser things, woul see how it is for their honour and comfort, and the good of others, to dwell most upon the great things in which they agree. Here are n complaints, or reflections. He gives many instances of God's powerfu management of the children of men, overruling all their counsels, an overcoming all their oppositions. Having all strength and wisdom, God knows how to make use, even of those who are foolish and bad; otherwis there is so little wisdom and so little honesty in the world, that all had been in confusion and ruin long ago. These important truths wer suited to convince the disputants that they were out of their depth in attempting to assign the Lord's reasons for afflicting Job; his way are unsearchable, and his judgments past finding out. Let us remar what beautiful illustrations there are in the word of God, confirmin his sovereignty, and wisdom in that sovereignty: but the highest an infinitely the most important is, that the Lord Jesus was crucified by the malice of the Jews; and who but the Lord could have known that thi one event was the salvation of the world __________________________________________________________________
