(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
He shall not be rich - The whole of what follows, to the end of the chapter, seems to be directed against Job himself, whom Eliphaz indirectly accuses of having been a tyrant and oppressor. The threatened evils are,
1. He shall not be rich, though he labors greatly to acquire riches.
2. His substance shall not continue - God will blast it, and deprive him of power to preserve it.
3. Neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof - all his works shall perish, for God will blot out his remembrance from under heaven.
