JOB 35
ELIHU CONDEMNS JOB
Elihu brings up the idea that neither sin nor righteousness affects God’s position of righteousness. Elihu condemns Job, telling him that his words are empty and meaningless. Elihu finds Job’s assumptions of God offensive and tells him that God does not hear his empty cries.
Similar to the words of Job’s friends, Elihu’s advice is confusing because parts of his advice contain truth, while others do not. It is important to note that although all of Scripture is inspired by God’s Spirit, not every word is meant to be taken out of context or read as words spoken by God.
