Commentary on Job 15:23
The wicked wander seeking bread: 'He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.' Eliphaz describes restless anxiety and deprivation. The wicked suffer hunger and know judgment approaches. This describes real consequences of sin and divine judgment. However, Eliphaz's application to Job fails—Job's suffering doesn't fit this description (he was generous, not grasping), yet Eliphaz forces Job's experience into his theological framework.
