Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!

World English Bible

"Isn't God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!

Douay-Rheims - Job 22:12

Dost not thou think that God is higher than heaven, and is elevated above the height of the stars?

Webster's Bible Translation

Is not God in the hight of heaven? and behold the hight of the stars, how high they are!

Original Hebrew

הלא
3808 אלוה 433 גבה 1363 שׁמים 8064 וראה 7200 ראשׁ 7218 כוכבים 3556 כי 3588  רמו׃ 7311

SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:12

¿Por ventura Dios no está en la altura de los cielos? Mira la altura de las estrellas, cómo son altas.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 22:12

Verse 12. Is not
God in the height of heaven? ] It appears, from this and the following verses, that Eliphaz was attributing infidel and blasphemous speeches or sentiments to Job. As if he had said: "Thou allowest that there is a God, but thou sayest that he is infinitely exalted above the heavens and the stars, and that there is so much dense ether and thick cloud between his throne and the earth, that he can neither see it nor its inhabitants." These were sentiments which Job never held, and never uttered; but if a man be dressed in a bear's skin, he may be hunted and worried by his own dogs. Job's friends attribute falsities to him, and then dilate upon them, and draw inferences from them injurious to his character.

Polemic writers, both in theology and politics, often act in this way.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 5-14 - Eliphaz brought heavy charges against Job, without reason for his accusations, except that Job was visited as he supposed God alway visited every wicked man. He charges him with oppression, and that he did harm with his wealth and power in the time of his prosperity.
