Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather it into thy barn?

Commentary

Commentary

Wilt thou believe him that he will bring home thy seed?.... Draw in the cart, and bring home the ripe s heaves of corn, as the tame ox does? no; thou knowest him too well to believe he will bring it home in safety; and gather it into thy barn; to be trodden out, which used to be done by oxen in those times: if therefore Job could not manage such unruly creatures as the wild ass and the wild ox, and make them serviceable to him, how unfit must he be to govern the world, or to direct in the affairs of Providence?
