{Chapters
4-7: Debate with Eliphaz - Continues in Chapter 5}
1~~"Call
now if you will,
but
who will answer you?
And to which of the 'Holy Ones'/'Set Apart Ones' {qadowsh} will you turn?
{Note: RBT says that 'the Holy Ones' refer to the Trinity/Godhead.}
{Eliphaz
Recites Correct Doctrines - But How do they Apply to Job? He is Off
in Left Field}
2~~"Resentment
kills the fool,
and
envy slays the stupid.
3~~I
{Eliphaz} myself have seen the fool taking root
{implying Job is now in the 'fool' category},
but
suddenly his house was cursed
{as Eliphaz is assuming wrongly that Job's house is 'cursed for
wrongdoing' of some sort}.
{Implying
Job's Children Died also Because of Sin}
4~~His
children are far from safety,
and
they are crushed in court without a defender.
5~~The
hungry consume his harvest,
and
taking it even from among the thorns.
And
the thirsty {tsammiym} pants after his wealth.
6~~For
hardship does not spring from the soil,
nor
does trouble sprout from the ground.
7~~Yet
man is born to trouble,
as
surely as the sparks fly upward.
8~~But
if it were I {Eliphaz},
I
would appeal to God/'El,
I
would lay my cause before 'Elohiym/Godhead.
9~~He
{God} performs wonders that can not be fathomed . . .
miracles
that can not be counted.
10~~He
{God} bestows rain on the earth,
and
sends waters upon the countryside.
11~~The
lowly, He sets on high.
{lowly are those who are 'humble' - humble means to understand
from doctrine in your soul ALL that God is and, when compared
with Him, how small you are in that comparison}.
And
those who mourn are lifted to safety
{implication is Job is not being lifted to safety so he is somehow
wrong in this punishment}.
12~~He
thwarts the plans of the crafty,
so
that their hands achieve no success.
13a~~He catches the wise in their own craftiness.
[Note: Paul quotes this in I Corinthians 3:18.]
13b~~And
the schemes of the wily are swept away
{implying 'Job were you a secret schemer?'}.
14~~Darkness
comes upon them in the daytime,
and
at noon they grope as in the night.
15~~But
He {God} saves the needy from the sword of their mouth,
and
from the clutches of the powerful.
16~~So
the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth.
{Eliphaz
Finally Vocalizes His Judging of Job -
(Quoted in Hebrews 12)}
17~~Behold,
happy/blessed {'esher} . . . {is} the man
whom
God/'Elowahh corrects.
Therefore do not despise the discipline of the Almighty {Shadday}.
18~~For
He wounds and He also binds up.
He
injures but His hands also heal/'make whole'.
{Verses
19-27: Doctrine of Suffering and Dying Grace Rational}
{Promise
of Deliverance of God To the Mature believer}
{Wall
of Fire Principal of Logistical Grace}
19~~He
{God} shall deliver you {Job and all mature believer}
from
six disasters . . .
yes,
in seven . . . there shall no evil touch you
{wont slug you - in fact it will not touch you}.
{Note: This is correct doctrine. Eliphaz has apparently a lot of doctrine in his soul. However in judging Job, he has gone out of fellowship and is incorrectly applying the doctrine to this experience of Job. So much of this doctrine is very true - it just does not apply here to Job!}
{Note: RBT says 6 is the number that relates to man in the bible. 7 is the perfect number and represents Deity.}
20~~In
famine, He {God}
shall
preserve/redeem {padah} you from death
{from economic disaster - dying grace}.
And,
in war, from the power of the sword
{from military disaster - death in battle}.
21~~You
shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue
{social disaster - maligning - Eliphaz is demonstrating this principal
right now!}.
Neither
will you be afraid of violent death {shod}
when
it comes {dying grace again - enjoy death}.
22~~At
'violent death'/destruction {shod}
and
'economic depression'/famine {kaphan}
you
will laugh
{not a nervous type laugh - a laugh from confidence in the
situation that only comes from the 'absolute confidence' of
doctrine resident in a believer's soul}.
Neither
will you be afraid of the beasts of the earth
{wild
animals represented dangers from the environment of that day
- today may also include a car wreck or plane crash}.
23~~For
you will 'have a contract'/'be in league'
with
the stones of the field
{stones represented the weapons of war of the day} . . .
and
the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.
{Note: Principal: No instrument of death can take a person until God permits it. When a believer has the understanding of this doctrine in your soul, then you can laugh at so called danger that can only hurt your body.}
{Dying
grace}
24~~
And you will know that your tent {your body}
shall
be in peace {while dying}.
And
you will go home {to heaven},
and
will not sin {end of the old sin nature}.
25~~You
will know also
that
you 'will be prosperous and mankind will continue'
{idiom: Literally 'your seed will be many'}.
And
your offspring
{survivors must go on when a loved one dies}
as
the grass of the earth
{Idiom: meaning grass is cut down, but grass beyond number is
still on the earth}.
26~~You
will come to your grave
in
a full vigor/age {kelach}
{means at the correct time of God's plan . . . at 20 or 100},
like
a shock of corn comes in its season.
{Note: Only God's timing is important. When a believer dies, it is perfect timing - as only a perfect God understands. When He takes someone home, it is the RIGHT time!}
27~~Yes
this, we have searched it {chaqar}, so it is . . .
'hear,
listen and obey' it
{shama` - listen to doctrine},
and
know/understand it
{yada` - bible doctrine resident in your soul} . . .
for
your good."
