JOB 22. THIRD SPEECH OF ELIPHAZ. The only new thing that Eliphaz has
to say, is definitely to describe the sin of Job! Yet his mildness
makes him end with bright promises.

1-11. Eliphaz ignoring Job's last speech, perhaps because he could not

between Job and his friends. The three have really nothing more to say

“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...

JOB'S SIN EXPOSED BEFORE GOD
(vv.1-8)
Eliphaz considered that he was representing God in speaking, and
exposing what he imagined were the sins of Job. He first asks a
question that it is well worth...

21-30 The answer of Eliphaz wrongly implied that Job had hitherto not
known God, and that prosperity in this life would follow his sincere
conversion. The counsel Eliphaz here gives is good, though, a...

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,
