Commentary on Job 6:21 (Summary)

Job 6:21 (ESV)

21 For you have now become nothing; you see my calamity and are afraid.

Yet Job’s friends have turned out to be a dry riverbed. They do not have the courage or the wisdom to comfort Job; they are afraid (perhaps of the troubles that might strike them, if they would empathize with Job).
