Job 34:1
Then Elihu continued:
BSB
ASV
Moreover Elihu answered and said,
KJV
Furthermore Elihu answered and said,
Furthermore, Elihu answered and said - That is, evidently, after a pause to see if Job had anything to reply. The word answered in the Scriptures often means “to begin a discourse,” though nothing had been said by others; see Job 3:2; Isa 14:10; Zec 1:10; Zec 3:4; Zec 4:11-12. Sometimes it is used with reference to a subject, meaning that one replied to what could be suggested on the opposite side.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
