I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: In Job 6, Job begins his answer to Eliphaz and concludes it in chapter 7. Job began his reply to Eliphaz with a lament. He wished that his grief were thoroughly weighed and his calamity laid in the balances. He said it would be heavier than the sand of the sea. He said he had been shot with the poison arrows of the Almighty, and it was drinking up his spirit. He said that God's terrors surrounded him. And he said that, unlike the well fed donkeys or oxen, his soul had eaten sorrowful food -- food that was like unsavory or tasteless things (1-7). He asks that God might grant him one request -- to be cut off. Then he could harden himself in his sorrow. He asks this because he has been faithful to God by not concealing his words. He acknowledged that he did not have the strength of stones or of bronze; and, therefore, he could neither hope nor prolong his life. He had no inward help and no wisdom. He wished, in this affliction, that pity would be shown from his friends. Instead, they withheld pity, thereby forsaking the fear of the Almighty. They are as treacherous as dried-up streams which vanish when it is hot and leave the caravans without water. His friends had become as nothing to him, even though he had not asked them for anything extraordinary, such as money or deliverance from his adversaries (8-23). He asked them to teach him how he had gone astray, to argue with upright words. He told them that they were digging a pit for their friend. He asked them to look at him and they would see if he was lying. He asked them to turn to him because his vindication was at stake. He said there was no injustice in his tongue and that he knew how to discern perverse things (24-30). [ Sermons: William Still.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.
