‏ Job 32:18-19

     18. "I am full of words," whereas the friends have not a word more to say.

      the spirit— (Job 32:8; 33:4; Jer 20:9; Ac 18:5).

     19. belly—bosom: from which the words of Orientalists in speaking seem to come more than with us; they speak gutturally. "Like (new) wine (in fermentation) without a vent," to work itself off. New wine is kept in new goatskin bottles. This fittingly applies to the young Elihu, as contrasted with the old friends (Mt 9:7).

‏ Psalms 39:3

     3. His emotions, as a smothered flame, burst forth.
