Holy Scripture

Job 26:2

A church father on this verse
“These words mean, "I do not reprove you for defending the role of God or to say the truth that was needed." However, you should not have condemned me, and, in fact, it is possible to plead in favor of God without allowing, at the same time, Job to be exposed to accusations.”
John Chrysostom, 5th c. — COMMENTARY ON JOB 26:1-4
