“Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.”
If there is a messenger beside him, a mediator, one among a thousand, to show to man his uprightness, introducing the possibility of divine rescue through a mediator—an angel or divine messenger—who communicates the sufferer's righteousness. The messenger beside him suggests divine presence in suffering. The mediator suggests intermediary function. The one among a thousand suggests rarity and value. The verse suggests that divine intervention through messengers is possible.
