JOB 22. THIRD SPEECH OF ELIPHAZ. The only new thing that Eliphaz has

“ACQUAINT THYSELF WITH GOD”
Job 22:1
Eliphaz opens the third cycle of the discussion with a speech
altogether too hard and cruel. He begins with an _enumeration of Job's
fancied misdeeds,_ Job 22:1....

Here begins the third cycle in the controversy, and again EIiphaz is
the first speaker. His address consisted of two movements. First, he
made a definite charge against Job (1-20); and, second, he mad...

EXPOSITION
JOB 22:1
Eliphaz returns to the attack, but with observations that are at first
strangely pointless and irrelevant, _e.g._ on the unprofitableness of
man to God (verses l, 2), and on the s...

So Eliphaz takes up the argument now. And the same old story: he
accuses Job of being wicked and he actually makes many bad
accusations. He said,
