 4What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? (Psa. 8:3‑4)
• All is known to God (vers. 12-14).This portion continues the unfair suspicions of Eliphaz. He makes Job say that God dwells in heaven, and has His abode among the stars, therefore how can He see what is taking place beneath the clouds which hide the earth from His view? He walks about in the vault of heaven in satisfied ignorance of everything that goes on in the world below! Has Eliphaz forgotten Job’s strong declaration of the omnipotence and omniscience of God in chapter 9? (“Job 3-31” by S. Ridout)
