“All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me. my: Heb. the men of my secret”
Job 19:19 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 19:19
Closest friends become enemies: 'All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.' The 'inward friends'—intimates, confidants—now abhor (Hebrew 'ta'ab'—loathe, detest) him. Those Job loved reciprocate with hatred. This emotional violence compounds physical suffering. Yet this total abandonment by humans makes Job's upcoming declaration of faith in his Redeemer even more powerful—when all earthly props fall, divine sufficiency becomes clear.
