It is interesting to mention again that God does NOT address Elihu in any manner, or consider him in the same company as Job’s three friends. God responds by acknowledging Job’s repentance, and by stating His anger against Job’s three friends "My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.” -Job 42:7b "I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you therefore I despise myself, and repent in dust and ashes." It is then that God speaks and challenges Job, who had dared to question God. Elihu comes on the scene and doesn’t agree with Job’s three friends, stating that Job’s failure came when he attributed righteousness to himself, rather than to God, his Creator. They contended that God would never let a righteous man suffer. In review, Job’s three friends tried to convince Job that he had sinned, and that his sin had resulted in his suffering.
