Job 22:1 Meaning and Commentary

Job 22:1

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said.
] As Eliphaz was the first that entered the discussion with Job, being perhaps the oldest man, and might be reckoned the wisest, so he gives the lead in every course of disputation; and here, instead of replying to Job's arguments and instances, at which he was very angry, betakes himself to calumny and reproach, and to draw invidious consequences, instead of making use of solid reasons for conviction and confutation.

Job 22:1 In-Context

1 Toen antwoordde Elifaz, de Themaniet, en zeide:
2 Zal ook een man Gode voordelig zijn? Maar voor zichzelven zal de verstandige voordelig zijn.
3 Is het voor den Almachtige nuttigheid, dat gij rechtvaardig zijt; of gewin, dat gij uw wegen volmaakt?
4 Is het om uw vreze, dat Hij u bestraft, dat Hij met u in het gericht komt?
5 Is niet uw boosheid groot, en uwer ongerechtigheden geen einde?
