Verse 7 is found in chapter 22 of Job. Eliphaz moves partly beyond generalities and directly accuses Job of specific sins against the poor, widows, and needy. The literary problem is evident: the reader knows that these accusations do not correspond to the initial portrait of Job. The speech shows how a rigid theory can lead to inventing causes to explain inexplicable suffering.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
