Commentary on Job 5:1

Theological / Devotional

Call now. In other words, “if you turn away from God and reproach Him, what aid can you invoke?”

Saints. Literally, “holy ones.” Here probably angels are meant (see Dan. 8:13; Zech. 14:5), but it must not be assumed that invocation of angels is endorsed. Eliphaz is no authority on religious questions.
