Commentary on Job 22:13

Theological / Devotional

The dark cloud. In vs. 13 and 14 Eliphaz is putting words into Job’s mouth. He did not see how Job could maintain his opinions without denying the possibility of God’s awareness of conditions on this earth (see Ps. 10:11; 73:11; 94:7; Isa. 29:15; Eze. 8:12). Job is being accused of believing that God could not see through the dark clouds that surround Him (see Ps. 18:11 ; 97:2).
