Job 34:24

He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.

Ver. 24. He shall break in pieces mighty men, &c.] Infinite conterit validos, so Tremellius rendereth it. He infinitely mauleth the mighty; and breaketh them in pieces like a potter's vessel, Psalms 2:9 .

Without number] Or, Without inquisition; as knowing all things beforehand, and not needing any evidences or examination of witnesses; or, without end, because their ruin is endless, Ruina maiorum sit cautela minorum.

And set others in their stead] As is to be seen in the rise, reign, and ruin of the four mighty monarchies, and others not a few, that had their times and their turns; as the kingdom of the ten tribes, which in a few years fell into nine different families; and few of those kings died a natural death. No more did the emperors of Rome, till Constantine. See Dan 2:21 Psalms 113:7,8 .
