1-7:  Bildad shews God's justice in dealing with men according to their works.
8-19:  He alleges antiquity to prove the certain destruction of the hypocrite.
20-22:  He applies God's just dealing to Job.
Bildad.
 Bildad now takes up what is fast becoming a controversy. There is perhaps less of the courtesy and dignity which marked the speech of Eliphaz, together with some harshness toward Job, caused apparently by the bitter charge of the latter against God. With all his ignorance of divine principles, Bildad is jealous of the honor of God, and cannot allow Him to be accused. In this he is surely right, but he fails to convince Job because of the root error in the thoughts, indeed, of them all: God must punish sin, and Job must be a sinner for he is being punished. (Job 3-31 by S. Ridout)
 He reproaches Job (vers. 1-2). (Job 3-31 by S. Ridout)
