Job argues, "If only I were a tree..." It is revealed in these chapters that Job has moved from hurt, to confused, to frustrated only to arive now at anger. Even his words to and about God are spoken with the flash of anger in his eyes according to Eliphaz. One can hardly blame Job OR his friends for that matter. They simply have no context for what is happening. So for now, an ongoing blame game is the basis and content of all their arguments. A good take away from these chapters is that silence is golden and words spoken without understanding nearly always lead to sin. Blessings!
