Charles Ellicott Commentary Job 27:1

"And Job again took up his parable, and said," — Job 27:1 (ASV)

Job continued his parable. —The remainder of Job’s speech—now, for the first time, called his parable—consists of his determination not to renounce his righteousness (Job 27:2–6); his own estimate of the fate of the wicked (Job 27:7–23); his magnificent estimate of the nature of wisdom (Job 28:0); his comparison of his former life (Job 29:0) with that of his present experience (Job 30:0); his final declaration of his innocent and irreproachable conduct (Job 31:0).
