Job 14 - 16

Job states that no existence is preferable to one in which God does not make sense to him.  Eliphaz, one of the friends, accuses Job of acting foolishly.  He has made some bold statements and must not assume that he fully knows God.  Job finally confronts his friends with the truth:  they are lousy counselors!  He is finding no comfort in any of the words exchanged - either from he himself or from his friends.  Nothing brings relief from his suffering.
