Barnes's Job 13:17 Bible Commentary
Hear diligently my speech - That which I have made; that is, the declaration which I have made of my innocence. He refers to his solemn declaration, Job 13:15-16 that he had unwavering confidence in God, and that even should God slay him he would put confidence in him. This solemn appeal he wished them to attend to as one of the utmost importance.
Wesley's Job 13:17 Bible Commentary
13:17 Hear - He now comes more closely to his business, the foregoing verses being mostly in way of preface.
