Job 5:1 Eliphaz asks if there are any creatures left on earth (anyone) or in heaven (the holy ones) to whom Job can appeal. It is a rhetorical question; he assumes he is right and doesn’t really expect an answer.
Job 5:6–7 Returning to his agricultural comparison in 4:8, Eliphaz argues that affliction and trouble do not grow out of the dust or ground. Rather, they are the result of everything a person does from the day he is born.
Job 5:16–17 The wicked sit in stunned silence at the reversal of their fortune. Likewise, Eliphaz implies, Job should consider his misfortune as evidence of God’s just purposes.
Job 5:19–26 from six troubles; in seven (v. 19). The numbers are used symbolically to draw particular attention to the final element: if Job will accept his situation as God’s discipline, he will be spared from his trouble and will be brought to a “ripe old age” (v. 26).
