From this it appears that Job was considered as a priest, not only to his own family, but also to others. For his children he offered burnt offerings, (ch. 1:5,) and now he is to make the same kind of offerings, accompanied with intercession, in behalf of his three friends. This is a full proof of the innocence and integrity of Job.

How long he had lived before his afflictions we cannot tell: if we could rely upon the LXX., all would be plain, which adds here, [ta de panta ete ezesen diakosia tessarakonta.] "And all the years he lived were two hundred and forty."
