Commentary on Job 22:13–14 (Summary)

Job 22:13–14 (ESV)

13 But you say, ‘What does God know? Can he judge through the deep darkness?

Job is in anguish because he sees that God does not want to intervene and give him justice (yet). Eliphaz now twists Job’s meaning, as if Job had said that God cannot intervene and cannot know what is going on in the world.
