Job's friend Eliphaz was trying to be helpful and even said in V 8 ...But if I were you ...
He assumed he knew why Job was suffering but he didn't know at all. Rather, an ounce of compassion instead of a presumption would have meant more to Job in his time of suffering.

Job said my misery would outweigh the sand of the seas you have proved no help show me how l have been wrong would you lie to you

What do you make of this chapter? What do you think of my summary? How would you summarise it?

I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.

These are the summaries of the book of Job.

They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.

Find out about the project here, you can buy the Bible Summary book on Kindle or in paperback, and feel free to get in contact if you have any comments or questions.
