Matthew Henry's Commentary on Job 22:7

Commentary on Job 22:5-14

(Read Job 22:5-14)

Eliphaz brought heavy charges against Job, without reason for his accusations, except that Job was visited as he supposed God always visited every wicked man. He charges him with oppression, and that he did harm with his wealth and power in the time of his prosperity.
