Commentary on Job 15:4
Eliphaz accuses: 'Yea, thou castest off fear, and restrainest prayer before God.' The verb parar (פָּרַר, castest off) means to break, frustrate, or annul. Yir'ah (יִרְאָה, fear) denotes reverent awe of God. Gara (גָּרַע, restrainest) means to diminish or detract from. Siach (שִׂיחַ, prayer) refers to meditation or communion with God. Eliphaz accuses Job of undermining piety by questioning God. This charge is serious but false—Job maintains reverence while protesting. Eliphaz confuses honest lament with rebellion, unable to distinguish between faith that questions and unbelief that rejects.
