From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

And unto man he said -At what time, or how, Job does not say. Prof. Lee supposes that this refers to the instruction which God gave in Paradise to our first parents; but it may rather be supposed to refer to the universal tenor of the divine communications to man, and to all that God had said about the way of true wisdom. The meaning is, that the substance of all that God had said to man was, that true wisdom was to be found in profound veneration of him. The fear of the Lord, that is wisdom -The word “Lord” here is improperly printed in small capitals, as if the word wereיהוהyehovâh.
