"Job has not hesitated to address God earlier (Job 7:12-21; Job 9:28-33; Job 10:2-19), nor will he now (Job 13:20-Job 14:22). He declares that he will face the Lord in court if He will agree to two conditions. First, 'withdraw Thy hand far from me', i.e., remove the punishment presently weighing upon me; and, secondly, 'let not Thy terror make me afraid', i.e., do not so overpower me by Thy severe majesty, that. cannot present my cause in. calm and composed manner" (Jackson pp. 43-44).
