ヨブ記 15:32 JC

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Job 15:1-35

The Second Series of Controversies CHAPTER 15 Eliphaz’s Second Address 1. Tells Job that he is self-condemned (Job 15:1-6 ) 2. Charges him with pride (Job 15:7-16 ) 3. The wicked and their lot (Job 15:17-35 ) Job 15:1-6 . His second address is not as lofty as his first. Job’s language has evidently annoyed him very much. He characterizes his words as vain, unprofitable, which can do no good. He charges him with having cast off fear and having become one who restrained devotion before... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Job 15:1-35

ELIPHAZ CLAIMS JOB CONDEMNS HIMSELF (vv.1-6) This response of Eliphaz lacks the measure of self-restraint he had shown in his first address. He had first at least spoken with a measure of consideration for Job, but now he directly accuses him of gross sin and hypocrisy. He says in effect, if Job considered himself wise, why did he speak with empty knowledge, his words like the east wind? Eliphaz does not directly answer what Job has said, but accuses him of unprofitable talk and speeches... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Job 15:1-35

The Second Speech of Eliphaz Job 15:0 Let us recall our position. Job had repelled the common theories of life and government which his three friends had elaborately argued. He said in effect: No, you have not touched the reality of the case; I have heard all your words, well selected as words, uttered clearly and sharply, now and again perhaps a little cruel, but you know nothing of my case: I do not know much about it myself; not one of us has yet come upon the mystery; all the commonplaces... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Job 15:17-35

(17) ¶ I will shew thee, hear me; and that which I have seen I will declare; (18) Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it: (19) Unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them. (20) The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden to the oppressor. (21) A dreadful sound is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him. (22) He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Job 15:17-35

17-35 Eliphaz maintains that the wicked are certainly miserable: whence he would infer, that the miserable are certainly wicked, and therefore Job was so. But because many of God's people have prospered in this world, it does not therefore follow that those who are crossed and made poor, as Job, are not God's people. Eliphaz shows also that wicked people, particularly oppressors, are subject to continual terror, live very uncomfortably, and perish very miserably. Will the prosperity of... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Job 15:1-99

Job 15 - 21. The second speech of Eliphaz is recorded in Job 15.0 , and in it we can detect an increased tone of severity. The friends had come intending to comfort, but their efforts in that direction soon got diverted into argument; their tempers rose and bitterness spoiled their spirits, as each argued to establish his own point of view. How often through the centuries has this tragedy, ending in dissension and division, marred the testimony of God-fearing folk, even down to our own day.... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Job 15:14-35

Eliphaz Accuses Job of Impiety v. 14. What is man that he should be clean, and he which is born of a woman that he should be righteous? Eliphaz here takes up a point which he had broached in his first discourse, 4:17-20, and which Job himself had conceded, 14:1-4. If Job admitted man's mortality and frailty in general, he should also concede his own particular wickedness. v. 15. Behold, He putteth no trust in His saints, not even in His holy angels, because they are finite and beneath Him in... read more
