Job - 22:17 Meaning

“Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?”

King James Version (KJV)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

22:15-20 Eliphaz would have Job mark the old way that wicked men have trodden, and see what the end of their way was. It is good for us to mark it, that we may not walk therein. But if others are consumed, and we are not, instead of blaming them, and lifting up ourselves, as Eliphaz does here, we ought to be thankful to God, and take it for a warning.

“And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.”
