Job 12:4 - Exposition

I am as one mocked of his neighbour . You have accused me of mockery ( Job 11:3 ): but it is I that have been mocked of you. The allusion is probably to Job 11:2 , Job 11:3 , Job 11:11 , Job 11:12 , and Job 11:20 . Who calleth upon God, and he answereth him . You mock me, though I have always clung to religion, have called upon God in prayer, and from time to time had my prayers answered by him. Thus it is the just upright man that is laughed to scorn.
