Job 15:35 (KJV)
Commentary on Job 15:35
The wicked cling to worthless things: 'He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.' Continuing the fragility metaphor, the wicked lean on structures that collapse. The repetition—'not stand,' 'not endure'—emphasizes complete failure. While this describes false securities, Eliphaz misapplies it to Job. Job's 'house' (family, wealth) collapsed not because they were false securities but because God permitted testing to demonstrate that Job's faith transcended his blessings.
