Eliphaz now returns for his third and final time and he accuses Job of unrighteousness with endless sins, stripping men of their clothes, denying water to the weary, withholding food from the hungry, and sending widows away empty handed as a callous rich landowner. Eliphaz accuses Job of thinking God is way up in the sky where "thick clouds veil him, so he does not see us". He urges Job to "submit to God and be at peace with him" so as to regain his prosperity. He further urges Job to return to God so as to experience restoration. Constantly Eliphaz accuses and urges Job presuming his hidden sin and guilt. Eliphaz is judgmentally misguided and misdirected.
