Bible Question: Why is there no mention of Elihu, the "youngest counselor" of Job? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Mommapbs! Here is a bit of commentary on Elihu in regards to Job 42:7.. "42:7-8 Four times in these verses God refers to Job as My servant, a vindication of God's confidence in Job when originally challenged by Satan (1:8). 42:9 Elihu was not included probably because his speeches were nearer the truth."
