spoke chiefly in English, basing his re
marks on II Sam. 2o:1oth verse. The
first part of it: 81 am one of them thai
are peaceable and faithful in Israel"
He said that the good woman who
spoke these words to Job, the comman
der-in-chief of the Jewish army wa
noted for three things: l. she was wise
verse 10; 2. She was peaceable; 3
